Excuse me. You started this by saying you were trying to deploy capital more efficiently. You appear to have abandoned that premise.

Yeah, you can't isolate one aspect of how our global economy works and talk about it in isolation.

And no, I didn't say "I want to deploy capital more efficiently."

I actually used the phrase "is [this] the BEST way" [emphasis added].

We went through a K-shaped recovery. Capital did AWESOME. I'm now asserting that the society should think about better ways to ALLOW capital to be deployed.

Right, if you want to push your populist agenda of state control in the name of the people™ you should really open with that.

Lol, if you want to attack anything that stops companies from controlling politics, abusing monopoly powers, and paying no taxes, maybe you should open with that.
