One of the flaws of free markets is the other side of the coin to one of it's strengths.

Free markets adapt to environment changes extremely quickly. 10 million investors making independent choices based on observations right in front of them.

The down side is a coordinated actor can make long term decisions that the 10 million can't see or even if they see it, can't coordinate. So China can be investing for the 50 to 100 year time frame, while individuals in the US have to be looking at their 401k retirement and a more short term strategy. A State actor can plan and invest in strategies that span past a single human lifetime.

Agile_a: TNGA has a market cap of only $2billion...

$400 million divided by 700,000 is a bit under $600 donation per person.

But, in fund raising, 80% of funds raised come from 20% of the donors.

So, that would be $2300 per person average from the top 20% donors And $143 per person average from the other 80%.

Could almost crowd source this.

Don't need all 2 billion to get majority. Just need enough to make some changes.

I had a friend's son tell me he has shared that to his friends and said he saw nothing worrying with it. Like holy shit! Even his son said that revelation was bothersome.

When all 20+ voices were speaking together, it was truly chilling. We really are all in this together

Agree, but until the Murdoch kids started taking over, Fox was marginally better than the rest.

Yup, our local news is pretty liberal. Not surprised they slanted it the way they did.

Didn't even realize they had a station where I live. Checked their facebook and wouldn't you know it, a way different tone from KTVB which has got to be the worst news organization I've ever seen. The only thing worse here where I live is the Statesman newspaper which, and I am being completely honest here, I wont even use in my bird cage because I don't want to submit the poor fella to that bullshit AND it isn't even worth shitting on.

My neighbor works for Sinclair and they are an awesome employer. Other friends know the owners through their work in Sun Valley and everyone adores them. Zero sip nada negative stories and as I live sort of between Wyoming and Idaho they would have reached me. Now Mitt, on the other hand.... was very rude to my neighbor at a social event. Many, many here can't stand him
