The feeling is mutual.

The only good Billionaire is a dead Billionaire.

One does not have to be rich to be a narcissist, but those who are likely spread the most pain.

Inherited money drops the IQ of succeeding generations by 10 points every time.  Can something like that be studied?  No, but that does not make it less true.  Simply unproven.  Nobody is going to get a grant to study this.  What would Ockham say?

Who else but the rich the time to learn things at a deep level?  It is a genuine quandary.  The real deal.  It is getting back to nobody but them having any time for thinking.  Everyone else is busy bussing between part time jobs, too exhausted for any fatigue that critical thinking is sure to bring.

Thinking is tied to wealth.  If you are a janitor who smokes a fat doobie and watches You Tube all day you do not need the same political rights as Elon Musk.  Musk knows what to do with stuff and you don't.

There are weighty issues to decide.  You are just a maggot wiggling in the carcass of humanity.  One of millions and billions.  Just comply and die.  It's the circle of life.  Do your part.  And when Musk  makes a smoking husk of things say, it was not me.  All I did was stand by and watch.


When the undesirables are shipped to Mars it will be a paradise.
