Here's an eye opening interview with a guy that prosecuted a bunch of executives caught up in the S&L crisis in the 80's. It should infuriate anyone that reads it.

I'm going pick up a few shares if I can out of principle.

I knew it for a long time - since 2009 or so when I started paying attention. But I never thought they'd be so brazen about it. My God this is insane. It's clearly worse than I thought.
Those people storming the capital, BLM, Antifa, and Occupy Wall Street all have common ground. THey'd never admit it because they preoccupied with superficial social issues driven by the media. But there's common ground there.

It's maddening because a lot of these people are the same ones that will cry socialism whenever AOC, Bernie, or Liz Warren talk about reigning in Wall St with better oversight and regulations.
And that's not a comment in total support of those three, but they all 3 bring up great arguments when it comes to Wall St and the banking industry as a whole. The financial industry doesn't care one squat about you.

Looking at the comments here people still dont seem to get it, some posters really think Donald Trump would have stopped this. bullshite the dude touted the stock markets as his big achievement for 4 years while he was president and would have done everything he could to protect these poor hedge funders. The fact that people still think this is an R/D issue and not a class one leads me to believe that nothing will change. Both parties are bought by the corporate elite who are now fuming over this Gamestop shite. The top Dems and Reps play for the same team and have done so for decades, the only thing that will change this is violence. If there is one thing we should have learned in the last year it is that violence works, not peacefully protesting and going home, not shite posting on message boards and certainly not voting for two sides of the same coin. South Park said it best "The only true power is violence."

The biggest failure of the Obama administration.
Definitely....I also blame Bush for his policies regarding the SEC.

Even at a point where people can find common ground, you take a shot at the populist.....because OMB.
STFU. Come back when you can follow your own advice.

Stop divisive rhetoric like this (you and your alters). You are doing exactly what they want.

Trump wasn't that far politically from Bill Clinton but the media painted him as some far right winger

Of course they have common ground. But the design is to make sure one side hates the other because of muh differences...
Need 2A advocates to hate Libs more? Bathroom issue. Tranny rights.
Need Libs to hate Christians/Right more? Restrict access to abortion via state mandates re: healthcare facility specs. Kill black kids.
Then legislate it.
Rinse, repeat.

But yeah. We'd all be better off if we shut that crap out and keep intentionally divisive partisan politics out of our lives.

I am levying a valid criticism against a former president and you think that because of that it somehow makes me less of a populist then I am. I was early on the Trump train in 2015/16 because he represented a departure from the status quo. His presidency had its ups and downs but I would generally classify it as disappointing from my pov. Yea we got to give the elites the middle finger for four years but as we are seeing now all it was was a bump in the road. Calling out Trump for occasionally placating that ruling class is a duty you have if you want to call yourself a populist. Because despite what people on here want to believe, he did not do much and he is still a billionaire who rubbed elbows with these wall street types for decades.

You must work in the media. Even when you are pretending to support less partisanship, you are partisan AF.

If you are using Robinhood, you can't do much of anything with GME but sell or hold.

I would commend any Republican lawmaker calling for more oversight of Wall St and the financial industry. I'm not aware of one doing that, but open to hear of any you may know of.
