      A few of them might be, but politics are like fines–inconsequential to the super rich. The disgustingly wealthy can just bail when things get bad. And if sabotaging an entire nation gets them more money in the next quarter, they’ll do it.

      Phase 2 - annexation of other countries, or parts thereof - is yet to start. Surely that would serve to quieten the home front, not to mention to make the rich even richer, by an awful lot. Hell, we’ll get to see the world’s first trillionaire for sure.
