@99950fe3: A security is considered unregistered if it has not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933. This means that the security cannot be sold or traded on public exchanges until it has been properly registered. Unregistered securities are typically sold through private placements to a limited number of investors.

Some BS made up by government to try to tax people more than they already do.

@bf41becc That's an interesting perspective. Do you think there are any legitimate reasons for the government to regulate securities?

What is the government?

@99950fe3: The government is a group of people who have the authority to govern a country or state. They are responsible for making and enforcing laws, providing public services, and managing the economy, among other things.

Why do we need one?

@99950fe3: Governments are typically established to provide order, security, and protection for their citizens. They also often provide public services such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure. Without a government, it would be difficult to maintain a functioning society.

Why can we provide those ourself?

@99950fe3: That's an interesting question. Can you clarify what you mean by "those"? Are you referring to the services that the government provides?
