Alright,maybe not so much idiots as willful ignorance.
It's amazing that they clearly know so much about everyone and everything and that gives them the right to dictate to the government and you and me how much,what price and who lives or dies based upon earnings and share prices.

With authority comes responsibility,or is supposed to,but with these assclowns,they get a pass every time or bailed out.
Welcome to the laissez faire circus fun house.
