Not on the long run, and not by the rules they're playing by now.
Top 10 richest men in America doubled their total wealth during the COVID downturn. From 750bn to 1.5tn. DOUBLED IN TWO YEARS.
Market collapses allow those with the most current assets buy up everyone else's assets at fire sale prices, and raid the government coffers for "bail out" money. They want that scenario to repeat, only now with a much, much deeper, country-wide drop than the temporary Covid bump.
"Wealth" as described in terms of US dollars is just an imaginary accounting measure. And it hasn't really "meant" anything since the death of Bretton-Woods and the removal of the gold standard.
That wealth the richest hold is assets. Physical things. Control of physical things. Control of entire populations and their ability to survive.
The fed could change the accounting to Bitcoin tomorrow and would not change the fact that those top 10 richest men control a vast majority of our nation. But that's not enough, no, they want to control all of it.
