...we are likely to see a [presidential] race where, once again, Wall Street funds both sides, knowing full well that neither potential winner will push a thorough reform of the financial system that would promote competition or slow mega-banks’ absorption of smaller firms.

That’s why when high-level progressives talk higher taxes on the “rich,” it usually turns out to be not directed at the financial aristocracy, but the upper-middle-class kulaks, who are poorly organized and not predisposed to populist solutions themselves.
