Institutions like blackrock however are growing. Consistently.

Ah yes, let's blame blackrock who provides a service for our neighbors who want to protect their wealth and invest, and let's ignore the bankers and politicians who created the system that incentivizes this behavior.

You keep repeating bankers and politicians but don't seem to be going into much detail. Which politicians? Which bankers? When did your neighbours get enough money to invest through blackrock and when did they become billionaires?

What do you mean? Are you going to say politicians didn't pass the laws that are the foundations of our financial and economic system? Which law are you curious about, then I can look up when it was passed and by who. Blackrock doesn't gatekeep, anybody can invest with them, you don't have to be a billionaire.

I'm here reading comments of people's opinions, and everyone is elaborating trying to help people understand their views. You're not. That's why people are asking for clarity (which you're not providing)

To be fair I stopped trying and became sarcastic when they clearly had nothing to add and just wanted to repeat whatever they've read in a blog somewhere
