I don’t think you need a conspiracy theory to explain this. This is simply capitalism, a system that seems less and less like the way forward. I’m not against markets, but I believe most countries need more regulations targeted at the biggest companies and richest people. We need stronger welfare states, smaller income gaps and more democracy. But most countries seems to vote in the absolute opposite direction.

The end goal of capitalism is the same as the end goal of monopoly.

1 person has all the money and all the power and everyone else is bankrupt forever and sad.
