    They know that the reality is they could never truly defend themselves if the tide turned. I have a theory that the reason they are ramping up so rapidly now is they see the writing on the wall and are behaving like a cornered animal. They’ve already done too much to be forgiven so the only option is to accelerate their end goal even though its clearly undercooked.

    The smartest thing they can do is to nationalize their companies into any applicable public utilities. Liquidate the rest and set up some sort of charitable trust or some nonprofit that will help sort funds into various social programs.

    Then slink off and live off the wealth they stole. Bar them and their family from starting new business endeavors for 100 years.

      I hope you’re right that the writing on the wall is for them and not for us.

      But so long as private business endeavors continue to exist, they’ll just invest through a middleman.
