Socialists always talk about the stock market as the source of evil capitalist corporate greed, a source of entrenched inequality and environmental destruction that must be taxed, supervised and regulated.
But rarely, like very rarely, do they talk about the bond market, which is way bigger, murkier, more exploitative, exclusive, manipulated and the *actual* source of all the problems they cry about on a daily basis.
Wonder why
Maybe because it exposes government greed to be far more insidious.
Maybe because 'the means of production' of money and credit being controlled by the government will start being questioned by the masses 🙃
