That's what the Fed has been trying to do, trigger a recession to raise unemployment and lower wages, they're quite open that this is the reason for interest rate hikes.

I'd take a similar but somehow still opposite approach: Outlaw stock re-selling. You can only sell stocks back to the company and to no-one else.

Warren Buffett and the rest of the billionaires have Biden and the Democrats in their sights. This is a despair-making moment here.

Weekends and no tykes on the assembly lines are how the very rich show that they love us!
