I think the billionaires couldn’t care less about what Americans want.
Are we likely to see voter backlash against the ultra-wealthy?
Capitalism doesn’t hate the working class any more than a lion hates its prey.
Or any more than a drug dealer hates their mules.
I prefer Donkeys.
Throughout history the downfall of wealthy oligarchs has almost exclusively been because a few are never happy with what they have.
They push too far and eventually it goes past most people’s breaking point.
Billions of years of evolution starts going to work after just a handful of consecutive missed meals. That’s a lot stronger than the social contract, especially when dealing with resource hoarders who openly flaut the contract and say “you can’t do anything about it”.
A large enough mob can do something about almost anything…
because a few are never happy with what they have.
If they were capable of being happy with what they had they wouldn’t be billionaires. If I had $100 million I sure as fuck wouldn’t be coming in to work tomorrow.
It’s a sickness and people shouldn’t be glorifying the mentally ill.
This is what I’m hoping for. It just takes Player 2ing a couple of them to strike fear in all of them and simultaneously remind people that we hold the power.
There is no real downside to the unliving of a billionaire. Only upside.
Okay, so who’s going to stop him? Anyone?
“Could.”
It sure looks like Americans do want rich people with political influence considering they just voted for a billionaire promising a cabinet of billionaires.
Oh please. More than half of Americans cheered having a billionaire in charge and while their faces were being eaten they’re still going on about how they don’t regret their vote.
Let them eat cake here.

The boomerang in question:
