They won during the inflation of the bubble, they win by getting the inside view and some limited control on the bubble bursting (thus, privileged opportunities to react and profit from the burst at minimum), THEN their very important companies get bailed out and escape the well-earned consequences.
It’s win-win-win, and everyone but them pays the price, pretty much no matter what (with minor exceptions, maybe, if shit goes truly off the rails - from their perspective, by my measure, we’re already there of course).
There’s of course ALSO legalized gambling on trivial up through disturbingly poignant world events of all kinds, via Kalshi and Polymarket, both of which have the same member of the crime family on their board of advisors (read: Ouji-boarding the biggest bets for very good fukfuk). Shaping world events, or just shaking out the dumbest of the dumb dickheads playing? squints
There’s of course ALSO publicly stated, State-legitimized-at-root money-laundering, directly consequential bribery, and various other shades of mutual-criming available to anyone with the bucks, via crime family cryptocurrency (-currencies). Shaping world events [we can’t even begin to fathom let alone scrutinize], or just shaking out the dumbest of the dumb dickheads playing? squints-ier

i dont understand what is the capital gain from the bubble burstin, company value collapses and the us economy dissapears from the map
basically, large capitalists will buy up the assets from failed companies and make bank
