Corporate, crony or disaster capitalism

Take your pick. The swamp grows deeper by the minute. David Talbot comments on this NYT article.

"Jared Kushner is a smug, squeaky-voiced, porcelain-skinned rich kid with absolutely no credentials for his many high-level jobs. But he does know how to steer lucrative government business to his equally inept family cronies. He's the perfect son-in-law for the Trump organized crime family. He learned everything he needed to know from his ruthless father, who served hard time for his own fraudulent business practices and bought young Jared's enrollment at Harvard (another shamelessly corrupt institution that tried to profit from the federal government's pandemic relief fund). Kushner capitalism. While much of America is on life support, the oligarchs and hustlers running America are making out like bandits."
