12. Yes we're describing the same thing from different ends.
The concentration of wealth was begun, in this cycle, by the direct theft of pensions and multiplied through enforced contributions into a fixed market. So-called "retirement plans" are an explicit tax on workers directly to these "private" parasites.

And what you describe is what I was writing about, so much money that there is literally nothing that they cannot manipulate to take even more.

What concerns me is the apparent inability of people to see how this ends.
