Bidding 5 mana as 1.5% just seems too low (even though I have a highly positive opinion of Scott); public figures get enough extra scrutiny and Scott already has a hit piece about him in a large newspaper. He presumably doesn't have the power to evade charges. EA, Poly, and many of his beliefs are counter cultural.
