#Wealth disparity in #India is acute, with the #superrich distinct by their affluent behaviour. Aejaz Ahmad Wani (Krea University, India) analyses the #social and #economic cadence of unabashed display.

Good call! The arrogance of the #superRich who think they can wreck the natural world without permits or consequences.

Another great #Krugman article.

"Public discourse about #taxes and #inequality is, even more than discussion of other #economic topics, infested with #zombies — ideas that should be dead, having been proved wrong again and again, but that keep #shambling along, eating people’s brains. What sustains the zombies is, of course, #billionaire money, which keeps #false claims in circulation as long as they seem to justify low taxes on the #superrich.“

“More important than the #stinginess of the #superrich, however, is the fact that their #wealth has brought great #politicalpower, arguably more than the #robberbarons ever possessed — power that they abuse on an epic scale.”

RE
$15 million necklace looks clunky and tacky. And why would you want something like that? Not like you can go anywhere wearing it without a lot of security

I heard yesterday on one of the #bbcnews podcasts that one of the #superrich families in #india put on a $500 million USD wedding last year

You're right, what about security? One definitely needs full insurance because the most likely thief is going to be a staff member of your home or your brother.

„The 142m-long (465 ft) multi-deck luxury boat, named Nord, is linked to sanctioned Russian billionaire Alexei Mordashov. It travelled from Dubai to Muscat, Oman, over the weekend - one of few private vessels to transit through the strait in recent months.“

Michael Podhorzer and Lisa Graves discuss the recent New York Times blockbuster exposé of the corruption of John Roberts' Supreme Court. They focus on "why people should be enraged about not just the Roberts Court, but also its billionaire backers — and the media that erases the influence of those backers while giving institutional cover to an illegitimate, captured body."

I’ve been reading stuff about the genuine #reality, stuff that sounds like The Onion on crack or a supervillain jumping straight out of a completely absurd script. Should I focus on real, dry reality, and how it would look like? Like a sugar-coated muffin or a musty, unironed shirt with tomato sauce stains?
