Enabling the Crypto Billionaires
The crypto barbarians are at the gates. According to congressional Republicans, this week is “crypto week.” That’s code for their shameless plan to pass legislation expanding the wealth of 25 crypto billionaires while putting the rest of us — and the financial system — in harms way.
Less than two weeks after the Republicans passed a giant tax break for the super rich (paid for with savage cuts to Medicaid, nutrition programs, and more), they are teeing up two pieces of crypto legislation that will reward Big Tech and the crypto broligarchs but pose serious financial risks to small crypto investors, financial stability, and everybody else.
