When 9/11 happened…

The 2008 housing crash…

COVID…

On a smaller scale, when the Titanic sank, I’m assuming someone inevitably got rich from the aftermath somehow?

Who are the people/groups that make up history’s must successful parasites? Who “came out on top” in each instance of historical human suffering?
