Listen, if we can create trillionaires and billionaires in a day, surely we can destroy trillionaires and billionaires in a day.

I believe in us.

@Ashedryden unfortunately, we have been seeding the ground for this parasitical growth since the fall of the Soviet Union. Newt Gingritch on the one side, and the blowjob democrat president on the other, in the 1990s. It's going to take generations to clean up this mess.
@poetaster @Ashedryden the Soviet Union is more of a sidebar to this process than a reference point
@wronglang my reference point is rotten ronald regonomics, aka, mr. 'tear down this wall'. The chicago school ethos has dominated the western political theatre since Regan and was part of the apparatus which the Soviet could not beat. That is a milestone in the descent of modern history to dystopia.
