A few thoughts on Robinhoods tokens.

I think it's a good thing to put pressure on these massive private companies to go public, here's why:

- They rely heavily on the US consumer, but are not giving the US consumer any way to benefit from their growth

- They are structurally important to the US economy, but they avoid regulatory oversight by remaining private. Private companies are not required to disclose their financials, conflicts of interest, etc. It's healthy to have very large companies have greater oversight

- It is deeply fundamentally unfair to give a special class of investors like Marc Andreessen, Peter Thiel, Brad Gerstner, Reid Hoffman, and all the Y-Combinator bros continual access to these amazing companies and leave everyone else out, this furthers wealth inequality to exclude all but a few from being able to participate

I don't plan on buying any of these Robinhood tokens, but I hope they're successful in pushing these companies to become public faster than they are.
