Wow, what a great article. It’s refreshing to read a wise take from a rich person, he seems like a smart dude. Too bad it has only gotten worse in the past decade, thanks to his fellow rich folks.
I do agree but we are fast heading to a reality where money controls everything. We are heading straight to those dystopian realities so well known from computer games, books and movies that we don’t believe will happen.
Long gone are the times when people can really alter the status quo. Now money is the king, only money can change the status quo, and the top 1% doesn’t want this to change. So they will pour as much money as possible to ensure that they will never be overthrown.
See how lobbies rule the political agenda, not people. Do you think anything will change in the future? I don’t, I simply think that the wealth accumulated by the super rich will only grow, leaving the rest of us to scramble for crumbs.
Saw this on reddit today, missed it 10 years ago when it was published:
