      It would be so funny that the economy crashes, making poor people poorer and rich people richer!

      Because that is what happened in the past few crashes. So I’m not entirely sure when and where I should start laughing about this

        in the past the rich got richer because the poor didn’t understand who to blame.

        sentiment towards the wealthy these days is far more volatile than it was in the 1930s.

          And it will just happen again. If you think the poor will rise up or something like that, then I have a bridge to sell you.

          Do not underestimate the US propaganda apparatus
