Considering that this is a conservative website, the number of folks going around bellowing socialist the socialist point of view on this thread is staggering.
Gore obviously has been holding some options for decades and finally exercised them. What is there about this that makes it newsworthy? He didn’t add a dime to his net worth - the options were valuable before he exercised them. He didn’t do anything illegal or stupid (this time).
There has been a lot of talk lately about “low-information” voters. On this thread we have seen a lot of “low information” posters. I hope our conservative voting is not as “low information” as some of the stuff I have been reading here.
I agree - Al Gore did nothing illegal. “We done it all nice and legal!”
Jeez - you must aspire to be a crony capitalist.
Apple appears to be in a happy bubble now, what with its iPhones nand iPads, and maybe Al Gore thinks he would rather get 9/10 of the theoretical maximum profit possible than play with the market and lose when the globe soon catastrophically warms and he has to move to Antarctica to survive... only slightly sarcastic of course
