I have absolutely zero faith that the current political ruling class will “come to their senses”.
All you have to do is observe their current behavior and you will come to the same conclusion.
When billionaires show you who they are, believe them the first time.
They have not lived through a depression and neither have they lived through any major world wars. They will be curious to see how bad it can get and they believe they will remain untouched from it.

- jeremyjh 1y agoThey probably won’t, either.
- AnimalMuppet 1y agoPerhaps. I'd say the odds are higher than I thought they were a decade ago, though.
- jeremyjh 1y agoI think its unlikely to happen, but also, that they won't live through it if it does.
- cyanydeez 1y agoThe current billionaires seem yo know they're headed to apocalypse since theyre building evil lairs. They know history. The problem is: power is an addiction and like all addictions, some can manage to cope without and others will a absolutely follow a destructive pattern of behavior
- b_e_n_t_o_n 1y agoI think people read too much into this sort of thing. When you have so much money, spending some preparing for a 1/1000000 chance of doom makes total sense, even if you believe we're actually heading for utopia.
- cyanydeez 1y agoSure thing bob. No way there's nothing better to do but be a prepper.

It will be apocalypse for us, but a glorious new age of feudalism for them. Why else would they be building castles and describing ideal societies of feudal oaths. Every single person in the country, regardless of political affiliation should know them as most dangerous domestic enemy.
