Unregulated capitalism is parasitic.

Factory farming is animal abuse, regulation abuse and insultingly fed taxpayer subsidies and still able to abuse markets.

Anything not represented as a stock is considered irrelevant competition.

What's considered classy if you're rich, but trashy if you're poor?

Getting money from the government.
