Wall Street wins when the economy is dynamic and as many people as possible are participating. Wall Street is also socially liberal for the most part, and it is critical to the economies in blue states.
I dont get peoples hostility towards Wall Street. There are plenty of industries like oil and mining that are in the pocket of the GOP and are destroying our environment, yet somehow they are the industries of real Americans.

(72,736 posts)3. Wall Street represents the billionaires who are destroying the planet and the humans on it.
The planet and people are our most valuable resources and the rich are bent on destroying both.
Their greed is killing us all.
I worked in an industry that the rich destroyed just for fun and profit.
