Does anyone have a good article on the topic? This one seems rather LLM generated. Not sure the specifics can be trusted... Overall thesis is maybe right, but would like to understand this in a bit more detail.

It has been amazingly booming if you have had money in any market... But poor are forgotten.
Markets might be booming but society sure isn't. Everyone's miserable and burned out and broke.
it may depend on where you live and who you hang around with
Which usually depends on how much money you make!

"It's not an empty excuse, it's a legitimate special vehicle".
I’m glad we have a competent and trustworthy administration to guide us through this inevitable collapse.
