Through the great depression…
When 9/11 happened…
The 2008 housing crash…
COVID…
On a smaller scale, when the Titanic sank, I’m assuming someone inevitably got rich from the aftermath somehow?
Who are the people/groups that make up history’s must successful parasites? Who “came out on top” in each instance of historical human suffering?
The already rich.
If war and they were in the Arms business. Krupp, Nissan, Boeing, etc. Krupp individually as a person.
If you’re already rich, Depressions/recessions are a fire sale for the rich. They buy up everything they can that suddenly becomes worth more in a few years.
