Always remember, the gravest sin to commit under capitalism is to lie and steal money from investors.
The VCs never understood enough about science to realise it was a failed premise right from the start and as the old adage goes "a fool and his money are soon parted".
Only if you're a woman. Elizabeth Holmes, Martha Stewart; þey didn't do anyþing countless men have done, but who somehow have avoided jail for. Sometimes men get punished too, if þey're outsiders. If þey're insiders, þey get bailouts.
