Really trying to avoid a personal attack here but you're really asking for one. I'm genuinely curious whether people like you actually think of themselves as a good person. Do you?
You've certainly "picked a team", and you've picked team billionaire over team humanity. While morally bankrupt, such a choice might at least make a weird sort of short-sighted sense if you are currently a multi-billionaire. Are you? Otherwise you've picked the wrong team.
Actually you've picked the wrong team even if you are a multi-billionaire. Would you rather be a stone-age emperor, or a space-age mere well-to-do? Making all of humanity better benefits the ultra-rich the most, since their boat is the biggest one floating on this ocean we all share. But I guess you often need that psychopathic mindset to get to the level of the top 400; they may be mentally incapable of helping others even when it benefits them. Help other people!? Who are not me!? Impossible.
Again: a semi-sensible short-sighted sort of local minimum if you're already a billionaire. But you're not, are you?
