Hardon seems to think that just because someone invests money, they must
have some kind of automatic entitlement to recover that investment, and
that therefore legalised racketeering is somehow morally acceptable, and
indeed necessary. But business is an opportunity not a right. Guarantees
of profit shouldn't be enforced by law, especially when those guarantees
are in direct conflict with the principles of academia.
