Just bad luck, as far as anyone can tell. I mean, why was Ahmaud Arbery targeted and murdered?

I can only imagine you had two off duty cops driving around after a hard night's drinking and suddenly spot a black man walking alone on a quiet street. They must have thought it was Christmas. Then the call comes in that, oh poo poo, they beat up an actor who's on this big popular TV show.

he probably wasn't singled out. he was a black man out alone late at night and cpd are racist animals. then when it turned out that he was sort of a public figure the corrupt, incompetent brutes tried to cover their asses by making wild accusations and obfuscating everything. and it worked! the hoax narrative is still the prevalent story.

there's a city in Florida where you can only vote in local elections if you own land, and a supermajority of the land is owned by entities owned by the Walt Disney Company, so Disney effectively appoints the entire municipal government

this is also how Walt wanted to organize the government in his Experimental City of Tomorrow, with the twist that in EPCOT all the land would have been owned by Disney and they would just not bother having elections

Paul Ryan proposed a plan to privatize Social Security in 2005 and it was so poorly thought out that it would have led to the US federal government directly owning all publicly traded stock in the US eventually, effectively nationalizing most of the economy

his plan was that, instead of your Social Security contributions being held by the government, it would instead be held in private investment accounts opened by, and managed by, the government. the Social Security Administration's primary function would be to use the money it received to invest in stocks and bonds, putting all money paid into Social Security directly into the stock market. any time someone retired, Social Security would then use revenue from the government's investments to purchase them an annuity that would fund their retirement.

this would include all the money they currently hold in their asset reserves, which in 2021 is almost three trillion US dollars, enough that if this plan were implemented now the Social Security Administration could directly, immediately buy about 25% of all the stocks in the DJIA.

it would make the US government the largest investor in the country, and it would inevitably snowball bigger and bigger until it forced all private investors out and the stock market was reduced entirely to the US government exchanging Social Security money for ownership shares in businesses. it would not be a question of if the government would gain a controlling stake in a major corporation, but when, and 'when' was probably 'within a few years'.

the George Bush White House called the plan stupid and irresponsible and he withdrew it in shame
