This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The biggest secret the rich DESPERATELY don't want people to realize is: Nothing is too big to fail.

Nothing is too big to fail. It’s just are you really willing to pay for the aftermath?

That's the followup: These are forced choices. We pay for the aftermath with money or lives. Take your pick. There is no alternative, and there are many more poor lives to saceifice to the status quo than rich lives.

It's sacrificing the rich's money (which is a boon to literally everyone else) or sacrificing the lives that WILL be destroyed.

Take your pick.
