He thinks someone made $600 trillion that we need to "take back"? LOL!   The confusion over these issues would be funny, if it wasn't so sad.

Aw hell, the 'feeling' is tragic, downright devastating, which is why I avoid feeling it.  Then again, when you think about this nonsense it's hilarious!

 

--which also probably explains why doom'n'glomers are a bit slow with the thinking part...

You all are a little slow at observing what’s going on...ideology blinds so many.

"He thinks someone made $600 trillion that we need to "take back"?"

The author doesn't yet grasp that derivatives are zero sum...that $600 Trillion in derivatives simply moved the self-same $1 Trillion back and forth between related parties 600+ times.

Obviously there's not $600 Trillion to "Take Back!"

Identifying $600 Trillion in total trades/contracts is not the same as identifying $600 Trillion in unique wealth.
