Some guy who grew up poor but was smart at math got expelled from HS but graduated from the London School of Economics and made lots of money as a trader. Maybe Oxford also?
Very sharp.

In 2011, while working as a City trader, Gary Stevenson (@garyseconomics) joined the ultra rich with a single bonus cheque. Not long after he was named one of Citibank’s highest performing traders worldwide. Stevenson made millions for his employer by betting on one thing: that the British and American economies would fail to recover from the global financial crisis, that inequality would only get worse and living standards would stagnate. That made him rich, but miserable. Which is why Gary would later leave his job to campaign on inequality.

In this interview he discusses his personal story - from studying at the LSE to the working culture of one of the world’s biggest banks - to what the economics of the 2020s will look like, and how the plan is to destroy the middle class.

It's called harvesting...and it works well when the crop is healthy...when it isn't there needs to be something more direct and something the crops cannot avoid...and it is in direct competition with the political class using deficit spending to enslave the masses...and nothing helps doing that like grinding them between totalitarianism and crushing inflation and a steady erosion of living standards...then the menticide kicks in allowing cradle to grave despotism to make its grand entrance.
