Wtaf is going on in the US lately.
Looking at breaking up Google
Going after Visa for monopolizing debit markets
TD slapped with a penalty worth more than the crime (for the first time ever?)
Going after market manipulators
I’ve never seen the law applied to the wealthy in a way that might actually influence future behaviour (and not for the worst??!)
There were rumors that the wealthy wanted Biden out back when people started calling for him to quit. It seems like it probably all traces back to Lina Khan being head of the FTC.
I’d say that I hope nothing changes, but I honestly hope it escalates significantly. I’m so exhausted about hearing how companies are fucking us over every day.
I really hope this evolves into a Rooseveltian trust busting era.
biden has my vote
God I hope not. Considering he’s not a presidential candidate.
Hope they catch Elon
Unfortunately Elon is still getting away with his shenanigans

If it makes you feel better, he’s about $30B poorer since buying Twittet.
But isn’t he also $56B richer thanks to Tesla pay package?
That doesn’t make me feel better all.
He’ll just dig himself out with the crypto money
“Fake cryptocurrency”
Phone call from the Department of Redundancy Department on line one…
Trust me, not all cryptocurrency is fake. A lot of it is, I will give you that, but there are some legitimately amazing projects in the space. Monero is striving to be completely anonymous digital cash and so far it’s doing a good job of it.
You can tell Monero is good because the feds are getting it delisted everywhere they can
And do you notice the Monero community? They celebrate when it is taken off of an exchange and they celebrate when people buy and sell physical items with it.
Monero is the only cryptocurrency that i deal with and that’s only because of it’s privacy considerations.
