    A primary function of Capitalism is to concentrate wealth. Preferably in as few hands as possible. Regulation is required to keep that from happening, particularly to such extents that cash/speech proxy crosses the threshold beyond which private citizens are no longer bound by State controls.

    We probably blew through that tipping point sometime in 2012-2016, so now the train is off the tracks.
