It's interesting how they keep referencing Game of Thrones and had two of the actors (who played Catelyn Stark and Varys) last season.
In this season, Mike is attempting a hostile takeover of a company in order to keep it together (and of course to make money for his boss, a Gordon Gekko type.) He's in competition with Harvey who is advising another Gordon Gekko type who just wants to gut the company and sell it for parts.
There's an argument to be made that the change in the tax code (in the 1950s and again in the 1980s?) that made this kind of thing common really hurt the economy and society.
