And herein lies the danger of Billionaires. Who stops them when they want to impose their tyrannical agendas on the vulnerable. Who prevents him from buying an atomic weapon and setting it off for a meme stunt or internet points ?
If only us lowly workers had more rights.
History has proven again and again that rights are taken, not given.
The wealthy and powerful have forgotten the bargain. They are out numbered. The masses will tolerate much, but there is always a limit.
Look at the wealth disparity in, say, India.
We will apparently tolerate way, way more than we deal with in the West.
