Friendly reminder that the rich love recessions. It's their intent to cause one.

That's when they amass greater property and wealth.

Wealth inequality always worsend following recessions.

$s never decrease - they just circulate… if nobody you know has any, and the tv is saying nobody like you has any, someone else has them

There's always a logical point where making more money becomes less efficient than making other people poorer.

It's just buying the dip. The crazy part is that despite how rich they are, they still need to do it. At a certain level of wealth, you have infinite money for a certain level of lifestyle. So even though they're crazy rich, they are still living beyond their means, and in order to maintain that lifestyle for future generations, then need to cause economic crashes and buy the dip. Wild shit.
