Genuine question. How would the mega rich benefit more from the recession than from a stable or high growth environment?
Seems easier to capture a bigger piece of the pie when the pie is growing for everybody no and nobody complains?
Not to mention the social and political unrest which might be triggered by a recession. Recent and old history has shown times and times again that it is when people go hungry or desperate that they challenge the established social order.

- Bilal_io 4y agoTwo things contribute to why I think that: History taught me that the rich benefit from piece and from unrest. Knowing human greed and that it's always greener on the other side. But as I said, it's just a conspiracy theory that the recession is being manufactured.
