The sheer rapaciousness of these multi-hundred millionaires is just disgusting. I'm glad to see that public opinion is largely starting to turn against these billionaire types as "geniuses" to boils on the ass of humanity.

We can't handle less. As a child you would scream if your toys were taken away. As adults we scream at the mere suggestion of something being taken away. It doesn't matter how rich you are. Some things never change. This is why we get stuck in ridiculous local optima and just can't get out. Individuals, including those in government, might be able to see better long term solutions, but getting there often involves convincing people to lose something. Nobody seems to be willing or able to explain their long term strategy. Or perhaps nobody is willing to listen. Start by being better than the people you hate. Campaign for strategies that involve short-term personal loss to get to better places.

I'm sure most of us agree with you on the original issue here but please don't fulminate or call names on HN. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. You may not owe billionaire types better, but you owe this community better if you're participating in it. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
