Palantir CEO Alex Karp warns the American response to Europe-style dysfunction could be “hang the rich”: "I did this thing in German where I basically told the truth— which you're not allowed to do in Germany." "Like— it's kind of a really bad situation and the economy sucks. The migration thing's a complete disaster and the energy situation compounds everything." "I got thousands of people literally saying, 'Thank God someone told the truth.'" "I think the American version, if we're not careful, is not going to be the German version.” “I think it's going to be—hang the rich." "It's going to be like— look, this is too dangerous, and we're going to hang the rich, but not really help the poor." "In fairness to the German version, German health insurance, all that stuff— it works." "I was poor in Germany for like a decade and I had the best life on the planet.” “Being poor in Germany is better than being here on some days." Via @tbpn
