Yeah... I don't see it happening. Some think that is basically the Paypal Mafia. I don't agree but not because I just think those guys are evil. Its because the state is so massive you literally can't do what those guys did any more. You have to buy or control parts of the state in order to accomplish things at the scale of the Robber Barons. The state during that period was tiny by today's standards.

I think some of our fellow travelers don't really get this. They don't really get that the free market is the path. There is an anti-rich attitude that comes from the left and envy. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of Elon and the Palantir guys but they are about as close to the Robber Barons we are gonna get.

People should really read Atlas Shrugged once. Its stupid long but it is crazy how it mirrors the attitudes we see today. Of course Rand was not a Libertarian let alone an anarchist(as many falsely believe), but she did get the types of people that are drawn to "public service". The leaches that populate DC and our state capitals.
