#shorts I Respect Ideas

It's fair to criticize. I have no problem. I'm certainly an open critic, but—I've been very critical of you. This banking policy of late, I'm a real critic because I don't agree with it. But I'm just one voice. You can agree with me; you don't have to.

I just want to put my opinion out there to the extent that it helps you think about it. Then I've done my job. Whether you agree with me or not doesn't matter. What matters is that you consider the idea. I respect everybody's idea; I want to hear why it has merit.

I'm happy to let them tell me why they think it has merit. I'm very interested to be a student of new ideas because I know that's very valuable. I don't criticize people for having ideas that are different than mine, but I don't have to execute on them if I don't like them. I don't use them; it's that simple. But that's my prerogative, and that's the open discourse we should have as a society.

You should present ideas, present concepts, present your views, and then let the market absorb it.
