The rich get bailed out, the poor get fucked over and out.

But hey, we just aren't pulling hard enough on those BOOTSTRAPS

BTW, not even addressing what I can't decide is either sarcasm or profound stupidity/Kool-Aid drinking...

Has anyone seen or recall watching the movie Trading Places (Trailer)?

SakashiroFunny how the casino must be temporarily closed and the rules be changed the very moment Joe Sixpack starts winning.


Precisely.

I consider most posts here as a sarcasm, because it's quite obvious that the utopian socialism apparently doesn't work, despite the flawed efforts that are closer to previously hinted Orwell's Animal farm than anything else.

It's more justified anger at how broken our system of capitalism is. People can barely make rent and keep food on the table, and the one time people band together to do what they've been telling us to do, they shut the market down to fiddlefuck with it behind the scenes.

You call it theft. I call it justice.

SakashiroCapitalism ceased to exist in 2008, when banks were considered "too big to fail". Now it's socialism for the rich and austerity for the poor.

One of the WEF's predictions for 2030: "You'll own nothing. And you'll be happy."


And this, +1

I must admit I love the whole shitshow we're witnessing. Investment funds were beaten in their own game, fair and square ... look at them whining now. All I can say is that they should get back to the basic literature on the nature of investment, namely Taleb and his "Black Swans".

All this controversy over stocks won't be a problem after the GLORIOUS PROLETARIAT REVOLUTION.

Alright, let's move to something more constructive. This debate won't bring anything anyway.

Does anybody have an early access of Everspace 2? Is it any good as some kind of looter-shooter?

We just want to feed rich people to the guillotines. The guillotines are so hungry.

Are you racist against guillotines?
