Sadly lots of people retirement and Healthcare are tied up in it. Otherwise I 1000% agree with sentiments.

That's the ransom.

The government could easily provide universal access to those, but tying it up into the financial system is how you get people to give them enormous leeway to rob them blind.

We can take care of our people without gambling in a rigged system.

Wall Street isn’t the only thing we need to tear down.

100% its just what happens to those that sacrificed so much of their income, chances for activities/events, and socializing.

I couldn't find the expression but It was something like positive change cant happen without pain today. In reality it was always a gamble and it all could have been lost dude to some douche thinking bleach in blood is cool. just this way everyone wins. Thats the way I think it needs to be looked at to find peace.
