AI Companies Are Buying Regulators Right Now. It's Step 4 of a 150-Year Playbook.

AI companies are buying regulators right now. It's step 4 of a 150-year playbook that's run four times:

THE PATTERN:
Step 1: Genuine hope (democratize wealth)
Step 2: Massive hype (everyone piles in)
Step 3: Few winners emerge (consolidation)
Step 4: Winners buy off regulators and lobby away legislation
Step 5: Everyone else holds the bag

HISTORICAL EXAMPLES:
→ Railroads (1800s): Robber barons consolidated, bought politicians, retail investors wiped out
→ Housing (2008): Banks got $700B bailout (The Big Short), you lost your house
→ Crypto (2022): FTX collapsed, you got 'sorry for your loss'
→ AI (2025-26): Step 4 happening NOW

2008: Banks crashed → Banks got rescued
2022: Crypto crashed → You got bankruptcy court
2026: AI companies are on step 4 → Watch what happens next

This isn't conspiracy theory. It's documented history repeating.

I spent 7 years researching this pattern across 617 sources, 23 interviews, and court records. The Token Trap launches this month on Amazon.

The Big Short was 2008. The Token Trap is now.
