I'm on a lot of stock market threads. Some of the regulars are pretty right wing, and a lot are surprisingly "religious" in a way only high net worth investors can be. I'm seeing an increase in posts about commies destroying capitalism, and banning religion.

Someone has turned the spigot on and left it running. Their fears are interesting to say the least.
