- The idea that a certain group cannot be trusted based on opinion is foolish. So in an upcoming post, I will provide proof that Wall Street firms and large insurance companies cannot be trusted. I will detail all of the fines that large Wall Street firms and large insurance companies have paid for illegal and unethical behavior.
