That's what I've been saying, just don't understand their end-game here, their wealth comes from the stock market and strength of the dollar, which both depend on US stability, but they're just absolutely nuking that. Do they still think they'll be fine when society at large crumbles around them? Sure, they can afford bunkers and shit, so they'll get by for a while longer (maybe) than everyone else, but then what? I just don't get it, they seriously seem to believe they can take a sledgehammer to the government of one of the largest economies in the world, and.......profit?!?!? Idiots, hope they burn.

yeah at this point I'm not gonna be satisfied with "defeating them at the polls" and Bidening things up for a few years. There need to be real consequences here.
