While I agree its parasitic, I dont think its the end of the world. Its more like they are taking all of the cream from the milk, and just delivering skim milk to consumers with out telling them. People notice the milk is different, but can't quite put a finger on it.

Its just part of the problem with income inequality.

Okay that taking the cream part, which you clearly agree with. That is doing enormous damage. This is IMHO why you have Trump. The system simply is not allocating resources to people who are creating value.

This is part of the reason that we have discontent around the world.

The US has Trump because too many people want to say FU to the system and don't realize the are really just screwing themselves.
