    this isn’t entirely true. their policy plans are the real “quiet part”- their policies are “drive income inequality” and “get rich” and “maintain power” at the expense of the poors.

      The quiet part is they want power for power sake.

      Income inequality and getting rich are side benefits.

      I venture it’s at the expense of everyone else.

        in real, authentic, and unmoderated capitalism, none of these companies and rich fucks would get bail outs, 'quantitative easing" or the Plunge Protection Team wouldn’t step in when their investments were plummeting. most of them probably wouldn’t actually exist today. “Live by the sword, die by the sword”, after all.

        Not that I’m saying capitalism is a good thing… I’m just saying that what we have now is… even worse, in some respects.
