MATT TAIBBI: “This is for you, Dad”: Interview with an Anonymous GameStop Investor. “The bailout and the pandemic just exposed how there are different sets of rules, not just for different types of investors, but different types of businesses. Your favorite sandwich shop? Closed. If you’ve got 200 of those sandwich shops? Open.
