Nothing seems to be easier than seeing someone whom you can help but not helping.
I suggest we start giving it a try. Give love to the ones that need it.

You are all right that the statute lacks a definition of “substantial financial interest,” and there is nothing in the case law or AG opinions to help answer the question. So, yes, it ultimately falls to the Ethics Board and a court to make the definition.
However, the word game here is for the Ethics Board in its complaint to submit the statutory definition of “anything of value” as the definition of “substantial financial interest.” While it can define “substantial financial interest” as it chooses, that is not license to do violence to the clear meaning of language. “Anything of value” is a perposterous interpretation of “substantial financial interest” on its face.
