Then why did you give one those richest people $8 for a blue check? And don’t tell us it’s to insure authenticity. You’re more daft and out of touch than any bot could ever be.

Ouch. Can we at least tax the American ones properly.

I thought it was the government’s job to break up monopolies. That stopped and this happened.

There's a rate of interest attached to all currency issued by capitalism. At just 5% simple interest we'll hand up 100% of that money, every 20 yrs. #Capitalism

Richard Wolff isn't someone to look up to. He thinks the current system of mass wealth redistribution, regulation, and government control is unfettered capitalism. Also, who cares, aside from envious parasites? Wealth is created, and the world isn't zero sum.
