Yes, I did notice a reduction in riot funding. And I know about the financial markets. I’ve been married for five decades to a former stock broker who has spent the years since 2008 supporting us with investments, so I hear about the markets five days a week at breakfast and dinner.

But I still think the wealth-beyond-avarice crowd is selling their bric-a-brac first. Why? I’m looking at their situation from a middle-class perspective. If I needed some cash to cover a shortfall, I would run a yard sale or sell stuff on ebay before I would pawn my rings or sell my guns. Bankruptcy is a long way away even if I had to sell my house or cash in bonds. I need to hear about serious asset divestment before I can be convinced that the Rothschild types have been reduced to genteel poverty—or worse.

The Soros cutbacks were sort of convincing to me, but investor hubby pointed out that improved IT could mean staff layoffs with no loss of capital and possibly even an increase; reducing staff may be an indicator of loss, but believe nothing until more evidence comes out, perhaps in reduced financials or lack of expansion or somesuch.

On the other hand, It was fun hearing about the 650 planeloads of gold that Trump took out of the Vatican. And the pope has ramped up his demands for money from American Catholics. A lot. Along with his criticism, of course.

I always follow the money—ever since I was a newlywed in Washington, DC—when Watergate broke out.

So I know what naked short selling is. What is corruption upholstery?
