the horror that is unchecked capitalism continues. The fact that they are seen as 'all bad' and yet they are still millionaires+ and able to keep on doing what they are doing tells me all I need to know about ideas like 'reform' or 'regulation'. Namely that, as long as money rules the government, there will not be any real reforms (with consequential teeth... otherwise why even bother?).

Millionaires in America - 5%

Millionaires in Congress - 56%

Until this is addressed, we are just changing the drapes in the hopes that others will think it is a new house.
