This is a long term power play for the billionaire class to take everything from the working class and consolidate all the nation's power in their hands indefinitely.

But this is an effort to remake the country so working people will accept much much less for their labor. And take them serious when they say, "no one should retire". That's a core pillar of their plans, people are only useful if they're able to work to make the billionaires richer, people should only stop working when they die.

Even with the losses, when everyone else goes under, they will be able to buy everything up for nothing.

Crater the economy and everything is wiped out but the 1%.

That ultra-elite 1% is then able to buy at fire-sale prices what everyone else just lost.

When the markets eventually right themselves--a decade or so later--the robber-baron 1% wind up owning even MORE of the wealth.

Honest-to-f--king-god, we are going to wind up in a situation where one guy owns 99% of the planet's wealth and the remaining 1% is
divied up amongst the starving, howling masses.

IF we let this madness of crony capitalism continue on its gangsterish course...

REVOLUTION IS HERE!

Exactly right. It’s been the plan all along. Just like the Russian oligarchs cashed in on the collapse of the Soviet Union.

I hate how this would affect prices for services that are already too expensive for too many, but when I heard that I thought "Yes! F-ing Do It! And couple it with enormous fines for gouging!"
