Seriously, how far can they take it? Some of these people could lose 99% of their wealth, and then 99% of what was left over, and still have tens of millions of dollars. These abject displays of cruelty are really pushing the limits.

Book wise, I strongly recommend co-reading Richard Scarry books. They are picture books, choc-a-bloc with characters engaged in various activities. You can play “I Spy,” naming games, invent stories, talk about the activities, hypothesize a

The guy remains well-connected to wealthy, powerful people. He may serve a bit of jail time, but ultimately he will fail upwards, as they all do. I find it a little grating, but whatcha gonna do?

It’s written for retail investors. Of course it’s attempting to get them to lose money. The owners of this media are not retail investors: they stand to gain as retail investors lose.

Maybe the approach is to do the minimum to avoid being successfully prosecuted as a monopoly. “It’s not locked down; there are alternatives freely available!”

The one and only billionaire who gets to die with a clean conscience is Chuck Feely. Dude was a billionaire. Gave it all away. Now he’s an ordinary $2 millionaire. All other billionaires should be ashamed.

The root problem is that there is a troubled subset of our population who delight in smearing shit on the walls. We’ve all seen it in real life public toilets, in that literal fashion, but it also comes in the form of ratfucking, like Stone

Employees stop it how? Can’t lay hands on them. Can’t pursue them. Can only watch as they leave the store. Store security might have more leeway, but Megan behind the till and Joey the stock boy aren’t in any position to stop them.
