Haven’t Deutsche Bank been busted multiple times for being Putins money launderers?

I cant see capitalists sacrificing trillions for 60,000 people.

They have been busted for all sorts of stuff the controversies heading (which feels like a misnomer) in their Wikipedia is quite long.

That said they could still be correct here.

They're correct in that Europe holds trillions in US assets, my issue is with the premise that they'll trade a towns worth of people for that.

Capitalists have made it known where there allegiances lie, and it's not with the people.

  1. yes, but that doesn't mean that they're right or wrong about this. Also, thanks to lax regulations, at this point what bank hasn't?

  2. this goes way WAY beyond 60.000 people because this won't stop at Greenland. Also, this is something that a government could require banks to do. This also goes without mentioning that they're not sacrificing much beyond getting money for the IOY papers.
