No wrong answer, just attempting to learn how wall street is considered so corrupt, yet maintains the street to success.
At least stock wise...
Brock. ..make sure you enter with the Benny Hill theme... It fits so well.
Matt Taibbi is horrible, he's a spoiled brat riding Daddy's coattails into the world of "journalism", can hardly call 'Rolling Stone' relevant these days in regards to politics, economics, OR what they were originally founded to cover...music.



Capitalism in ANY form still beats the pants off of literally ANY other system. What do you want to replace it with? Communism/Socialism? We see how great those work out for the poor and less fortunate....just creates MORE of them. Capitalism CAN have winners and losers but it can also have symbiosis in which both the buyer and seller come out feeling like a good deal has been struck and to be quite honest that happens more on the small scale than it does on the large scale. A young kid goes and cuts his neighbor's grass, the neighbor pays....the kid earns some cash, the homeowner doesn't have to fuck with the yard that week that is WIN-WIN Capitalism.....don't have to worry about that in Communist countries....who owns a house much less a lawnmower?

There's a reason this little joke resonated....

it's because it's true.

But I'm sorry, you were decrying how horrible and diluted Capitalism is?
