They transfer wealth upwards
*downwards. They’re shitty people, let’s stop glorifying them, which is supported by “trickle-down economics” that went right into their hands so to them, it worked.
Make the rich richer.
The status quo does not just enrich the rich. It also allows its privileged to rape children without consequences.
Always has been
This
We need stakeholder primacy over shareholder primacy! Stakeholder Socialism
the point is for billionaires to hoard wealth. literally capitalism.
Economics, as an intellectual discipline, is closer to theology than physics. Its power is proportional to the belief it commands.
Finance is an arbitrary subset of mathematics, cherry picked by the owning class, protected from scrutiny, and applied as their supporting mythology.
It’s entirely imaginary, which means alternatives are only ever a conjuring away. We did it after the Enlightenment, we can do it again.
Wow. Someone suddenly gets it.
When a host is infested by multiple parasites, the parasite which extracts the most from the host before the host dies has the greatest chance of survival.
The point is to extract as much wealth as possible so they can survive in bunkers after they’ve ruined our planet’s ability to support life our way of life as we know it.

This right here is the answer. Being a billionaire is disease. They will never have enough power or money they are mentally ill and sick psychopaths that need to be put down. They are not able to reformed.
There’s this one weird trick billionaires don’t want you to know about!
(take all their money, now they ain’t billionaires)
Fucking dragons, every single one
Dragons are at least cool and breathe fire. Billionaires are more like intestinal worms.
Money will have no value and your security team will just replace you. Good luck.
Vault-Tec origin story?
Wonder what video you got that from lul :3
“there is no world police”, said Chinese Communist Political Party
I work at a DMV call center. People call me with vehicle registration or driver’s license problems and I help them out. AI is supposed to replace me so the state bought an AI voice recognition system. It can transcribe calls but cannot do anything with the information so a new part of my job is responding to what the AI interprets and then use AI canned responses to reply to the caller via email so I can train the AI.
Fascinating. I recently had to replace an expired license. They said I could renew it online, but that didn’t work. They said I could make an appointment online, but that didn’t work either. I called in and couldn’t get in touch with anyone real. So I finally just went to the DMV and got my license renewed in person. Mentioned all this stuff to the guy behind the counter and he’s like “yeah… they’re having a lot of problems with the computer systems…” and now after reading your comment I’m like. Oh duh. Of course. They’re using AI. No wonder none of this shit works!
🤢😱😭
The point is to provide more billions to billionaires.
To allow an extremely small percentage of people live like royalty.
Duh.
The old system did that just fine with actual royalty though.
Which they will also never feel satisfied by
It would be extremely terrible to fulfill everyone basic needs and great to force people into the cold and freezing weather. We should imprison poor people for trying to survive, sleeping outside in a tent is for camping, duh, we must arrest them because they are obviously drug addicts.

Hey, are you denying me the opportunity to work very hard every day so one day I may become a billionaire?
The system is built to deny you that as well, yes, as long as the current billionaires in charge don’t like you.
But if I lick their boots enough, they will come to like and respect me, right?
I was just faced with this recently. I started doing freelance work due to disability and to have the freedom to say no to nightmare clients. Welp, I encountered such a client and they threw a whole fit at basic boundaries. But it directly cost me money and potentially the relationship to the person that introduced us so guess who still loses and faces consequences? Never the rich asshole! They can just keep throwing pennies at people until someone is desperate enough to get exploited.
Every one driving the train has a little goblin inside, jumping up and down on the table shreeking “I WANT MORE MONEY!!!”
