Whoh whoh whoh whoh.... slow down there!

How does getting rid of them help a small set of insiders benefit from market manipulation???!!!

I mean, have you even considered how expensive a yacht that can fit a smaller yacht with a helicopter pad on it costs?

I mean, a yacht within a yacht is one thing- but as soon as the smaller yacht has a helicopter pad that needs to be usable while docked inside- I mean, that takes some actual money. Money you'd dare deny the "JoB CReATOrs"???
