“We have this fantasy that our interests and the interests of the super rich are the same. Like somehow the rich will eventually get so full they’ll explode. And, the candy will rain down on the rest of us – like there’s some kind of piñata of benevolence. But, here’s the thing about a piñata: it doesn’t open on its own. You have to beat it with a stick.”
