Oh.. I thought he was going to go on an argument that we need to implement basic income as a method for improving efficiency when his second paragraph included an author who put herself into the one percent by being creative and making a product while being unemployed and on socialist welfare and that by removing a lot of what is effectively the "chaff" of the capitalist workforce the workforce that wants to be part of the workforce improves overall.
I guess since he also included an businessman known for his abhorrent disdain for socialism that he flippantly crams his vehicles into spots designated for people with disabilities, I should have realized the final outcome would be an argument that extreme wealth creates utilitarianism and is more efficient then trying to broaden wealth.
Reminds me of the decay of the Roman empire in the 400's and how the rich started abstaining from the government and society that tried to represent and assist everyone to create micro-communities in their villas and start up the process of feudalism. What shall we call our new era of a society that is now 90% capital deprived and rising? Feudalism 2.0? Feudl.ism? Feu.dl?
