that maintaining the yachts while raising all the little boats is really not going to work. So, we have neoliberals saying "we are going to have to have smaller boats for everyone - worldwide - so everyone is equal". They completely ignore the yachts off to the side because, well, those yachts belong to themselves and their friends.

Bernie is the only one saying "what about those goddamned yachts over there?? Why are they taking all of our money?"

Still I did look through the wiki and for someone with time it's a good basic primer to start with.
