    This is a little behind...since the Robin Hood stuff didn't happen yet but for once I am all in with what Glenn Greenwald is saying here

    bottom line: to break the grip of the oligarchy that runs the US, left and right need to find common ground and he is clearly excited that this could be a strong example of that

    • Hardly successfully "rigging" the system. They get rich by charging their client's ridiculous amounts.formed
    • Let's not forget that the Right wants total de-regulation (let WS gamble however they want, regardless of consequence).formed

    • Everyone always has an agenda, as Greenwald points out.formed
