Know-how is mostly a common inheritance of all humanity. The billionaires are simply people who take more than their fair share. They are pleonetics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleonexia #oligarchy #filthyrich #vampires #democracy

I am paraphrasing here, but I remember a statement about making money.

If you have a million dollars it is only a matter of time before it becomes zero.
If you have a billion dollars it is only a matter of time before it becomes two billion.

Hmmm... Whoever said that is onto something.
;-)

Yours Truly here is still working on his first billion. ;-)
Haha!

Aaaaaah, ich mag es, wie Jeffrey #Epstein im #TheEconomist beschrieben wird… Er ist dort nicht der „Milliardär“ oder „Jetset-Playboy“, sondern einfach „a dead paedophile“.
Sagen, was ist!
„Peter Mandelson failed background security checks before he became Britain’s ambassador to America, according to the Guardian. Lord Mandelson was sacked in 2025 over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, a dead paedophile.“

I am beginning to think that the only way out of this #PoliticalDuopoly is to punish #Labour, renounce the shift to the right by crushing #PHON and the #LNP forcing any remaining majority (presumably what’s left of Labor) to ally with #Greens and progressive #INDies to form govt. And keep this up for three parliamentary terms so the electorate can get used to more diverse and #Inclusive representation in both Houses. We might then truly get ‘the govt we deserve’ not one imposed by the #msm #propaganda machine of the #FilthyRich.

The saddest thing is, this economic nightmare is perpetuated by a widely held belief that there are no better alternative economic models for democratic societies to adopt. Such is the mindset of brain washed economists and politicians eagerly egged on by #FilthyRich #Grifting #fascists willing to burn the planet for gold and power.

Agree completely with your view. Overseas holiday travel is a luxury we ought not to indulge in any more until ways are found to drastically cut the environmental costs. We simply cannot afford to phuk up the planet any further. It’s a matter of survival now… (not that that would stop the #FilthyRich #Grifters)
BTW, we can no longer afford to have #Wars either, they are a massive drain on finite resource and the combined pollution effects are cutting decades off life resources on this planet.

Gene Weingarten has fun imagining who will be consigned to what circle of a Dantean hell if/when Trump's criminal enterprise gets its just rewards.

I fully agree with his conclusion the 9th, the lowest and worst, circle should be reserved for "the titans of business, rapacious plutocrats" who have financed, set in motion, and profited from said criminal enterprise.

We might be at a tipping point, no? Trump seems to be failing … everywhere, all at once.

Wer #Netflix oder den Zugang dazu hat, sollte sich die #Doku #FilthyRich über #Epstein angucken.
Es ist alles so unglaublich ekelhaft, entlarvend (auch für den #Kapitalismus), schockierend und traurig, dass mir der einzige Trost ist, dass #Epstein tot ist (ob Selbstmord oder nicht, ist mir egal) und #GhislaineMaxwell hinter Gittern.
