“At a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island, Kurt Vonnegut informs his pal, Joseph Heller, that their host, a hedge fund manager, had made more money in a single day than Heller had earned from his wildly popular novel Catch-22 over its whole history.

For a critical element of our society, including many of the wealthiest and most powerful among us, there seems to be no limit today on what enough entails.”
