I don’t know who needs to hear this or comprehend it still, but most if not all billionaires don’t care if the economy crashes. They have so much money and power they can be safe as a bug in a rug. They can then take advantage of a collapsed economy and suffering society to force even more workers into defacto slavery.
@hacks4pancakes You forgot that they will also buy up businesses and land as their owners financial situations falter.
@davesomebody and with a crippled government there will be no antitrust protection
@hacks4pancakes yep, a lot of inflation in the housing market came from large companies buying up single family homes as they came on the market. I don't understand what their endgame in this even is. But they found a place where regulations were lax and struck while the iron was hot.
@davesomebody @hacks4pancakes like here in Canada, and I suspect a lot of money laundering as well.
@ottominati @hacks4pancakes gee, if is normies get caught money laundering it is a big deal. If a corporation gets caught they have to pay a fraction of what that earned doing of. Why didn't the just officially tax it in the first place?
