This many billionaires and big companies grouping together doesn’t seem like it’s going to be good for us.

I am wondering why they are getting this brazen and in our face about corruption as if they are seeing how far they can push and how much the pedons can take
Narrator's voice:
Because they know they can get away with it. Trump got elected and even won the popular vote despite being the most obviously incompetent and corrupt president we've ever had so now they know there are no consequences
I think they’re seeing trump as a tool they can use if they play his game, so they’re all falling in line. They’re too big that it’s not going to hit their bottom line much and no one in government is going to stop them, so maybe they’re just going to grab as much as they can while they have the opportunity and that requires them to be brazen.
Because they are scared, and hiding behind the skirts of a paper-thin layer of incompetent fascists prior to facing the music from everybody they've hurt.
