Been reading too much stoic philosophy lately, maybe :-)
Can't change it - don't worry about it...

The main issue - sure, some folks are making out like bandits. Does it affect us financially in any way?


IMO, that kind of thinking is why the US is in its current spiral. Too many folks don't think diminished democracy (or outright autocracy)will impact them much, so why should they raise hell and try to force things to get better?

Gaming the financial system for the elite and politically connected will eventually destroy trust in the entire system, and it could collapse.
