Tyranny and poverty are everywhere a mainstream economics phenomenon.
I’ve read “ Poland 1939”
It is a war history of Adolf Hitler‘s opening to World War II where he invades Poland in 1939 and the allies of Poland, namely England in France renege on their treaties with Poland and allow it to be overrun by the Germans.
I have a tiny shred of sympathy because Europe was still devastated by World War I, but their failure to defend Poland, a wild World War II to unfold.
It’s so rich because private equity is the most opaque financial sector in a modern economy. Many of the people who are buying into their investment schemes are contractually obligated to keep it in them or suffer a penalty they have no idea how their money is being utilized many years now PE has not performed well

I’m currently working on a video essay who argues taxing the rich is useful, but it falls far short of actually bringing wealth disparity back to earth.
The net worth of the super rich and super huge corporations that are the basis of their net worth they’re largely unreachable.
And I argue that we can do much more to choke off the Niagara of money flowing into their hands in the first place. At that point the tax shelters don’t really matter so much.
I hearby taking an oath of celebacy.

Montgomery’s treatment of the subject the book I referred to is less generous.
Unless I’m miss remembering, they were hoping to squirm out of any actual military commitment. They made promises to the Polish that they never intended to fulfill.
