Steve Bannon: “But the oligarchs’ day is coming. Remember, we’re going to turn all the social media companies into public utilities — public utilities, and get like a 7% return … and the public has to have a voice in the control of it.”

He’s a nationalist *and* a socialist.

They did have high standards when it came to appearance and qualifications. Steve "Shit Flood" Bannon is a bit of a mess.

Former investment banker with a net worth of up to $48 million.

Old Cynic suspects he actually wants to "deconstruct the administrative state" in order to get rid of all the laws that inhibit the predation of investment bankers and others like himself.

Empty threats, public utilities my ass. Bannon would have state media, ministry of truth. Hannity would be the PM.

They are all about the wealth.

Oh well.
