    on one hand, this is outrageous, ESP for SCOTUS.

    on the other hand, I can be sure nothing will be done about it.

      Nothing will be done about it (not in the immediate future) because this shit has been going on for, at least, one hundred years. J.R.R. Tolkien wrote about this as “diseased dragons laying on mountains of gold” and it is perfectly captured by Wealth Shown to Scale. The first time that I tried to make it through that website (five years ago), I became so fucking sick to my stomach, I couldn’t get through the first 1/3.

      TL;DR there are, currently, around 400 disgusting diseased dragons (<- these are real humans) that control almost everything that happens on Earth. They don’t give a flying fuck about anything except getting more money and power.
