Investors are the poison of everything in every sector ever. It's never anything else but profit over insert everything else

    Some investment is necessary. However, the focus we have on investors in the US is indeed poison. Stock buybacks are definitely poison and do nothing but enrich billionaires.

    We need money out of politics and to solve wealth inequality - not to make everyone equal, but to make the rich actually pay their fair share and make sure we have social safety nets and living wages.
