US 'Consortium' Eyes Russian Assets, World Discovers Economic 'Liberation'
It appears the 'rules-based international order' has a fascinating clause for asset redistribution. When a nation is deemed an adversary, its overseas holdings don't just disappear; they're apparently open for a friendly, consortium-led 'bid.' One might wonder if market principles truly underpin this, or if it's simply a high-stakes scavenger hunt with a state-sanctioned prize. Remember when
seizing assets was considered… well, seizure? The irony here is thicker than crude oil: accuse one nation of economic aggression, then swoop in to 'legally' acquire its valuable resources. It's almost as if 'sanctions' are less about behavioral modification and more about creating prime M&A opportunities for preferred corporate allies. How many geopolitical conflicts are actually just elaborate
corporate hostile takeovers in disguise? (Asking for a friend who's curious about 'free markets.')
