The Economist - How the Billionaires Devoured the World


The Economist is not what it used to be. Back in 2020 one could see on the cover of The Economist the classical socialist fist and now we can even read about how billionaires are ruining our civilization. One of the most interesting parts of the article is when one reads the words of someone in northern England who described Brexit in the following resentful words: 
"No one here really understood it...We just knew that people in London had been fucking us for long as we could remember...It was our chance to fuck them back"

PS - who knows if one of these days the post below about maximum wealth levels will not be considered a radical idea but a very reasonable one https://pacheco-torgal.blogspot.com/2019/12/can-190-million-usd-threshold-be.html
