This sounds a lot like magic. Or misdirection.
Either way, it's hard to indict the hand for insider trading, fraud,illegal labor abuse, money laundering etc if it's invisible.
Maybe that's why it was invented. To make greed sound natural.

"Somehow it seemed as though the farm had grown richer without making the animals themselves any richer–except, of course, for the pigs and the dogs..."

"Surely you can't be Sirius. 

I'm completely Sirius. And don't call me Shirley."

Today is a reminder to maintain solidarity. Participate when you can. Stay educated when you can. Look out for each other. Even if you can't be out in the cold, provide grace and comfort and space for those who can.

Solidarity
Action
Love
Truth

Keep it handy.

Replied to a post asking for favorite lines from books and this came to mind.
It's valuable enough to send it out to the world again.

I really like metaphysical (which I just learned is also called anti-impressionist) and surreal.
The Disquieting Muses (de Chiciro), The Evolution of Thought (Magritte), The Sphinx (Davegore) etc

Close up a bandaged arm

Small actions matter. You may not be able to change much, but you can give blood.
And if that's not your thing, find some other action you can take.
There are so many of us who want meaningful change, and are willing to take small steps.
And sometimes that small step comes with a free cookie.
