How do you get it without ever getting ir?
1 We do not, and have not for some time, live in a free market capitalist economy.
2 We live in a fascist economy where corporate and state power have merged, with the thinnest veneer of capitalism to fool the dumb masses. How else could the concept of ‘too big to fail’ exist?
3 This system exists because of leftist ideology. Call it fascism, socialism, communism ... all are the same ... but it isn’t truly close to capitalism.
4 Too big to fail has a flip side, too small to succeed.
The USA is not a democracy.

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler (D) stated Tuesday evening there will be no "autonomous zone" within the city after rioters chased Portland police officers and Multnomah County Sheriff's Office personnel to serve an eviction notice at a house that is at the center of a long dispute.
Video from the confrontation shows the rioters continually attacking and chasing away the officers from the neighborhood Tuesday morning. The Portland Police Bureau said windows were smashed on police vehicles and two tires were flattened.
Wheeler tweeted he is "authorizing the Portland Police to use all lawful means to end the illegal occupation on North Mississippi Avenue and to hold those violating our community’s laws accountable. There will be no autonomous zone in Portland."
He added, "It’s time for the encampment and occupation to end. There are many ways to protest and work toward needed reform. Illegally occupying private property, openly carrying weapons, threatening and intimidating people are not among them."
The occupiers are hard at work and have built barricades to prevent police from taking back the area.https://townhall.com/tipsheet/juliorosas/2020/12/09/portland-mayor-vows-new-autonomous-zone-n2581259MANY videos contained therein.
As an addendum question, why is the D government illegally evicting people?

No link, no references generally means the post is just an opinion and should be stated as such or the person making the post is maliciously trying to get you to believe some propaganda he or she has made up or found on some wacko site. If they tell you to google it yourself you can bet your last dollar it’s a lie and you would be wasting your time.
If only leftists would live by that standard.
Actually, I agree with it ... but you don't. How many times have I asked for a reference, followed by leftists ... much like yourself ... soiling their knickers.

I hear Miss Nancy is preparing to announce that she will not rest until the reason to blame this on Trump is found.
