    When 99% or less of the population can’t work or make any money. What I mean by this is the economy mainly driven by robots/rudimentary AI. The top 1% will be angry and try to keep it as is, but as history has taught us humans really like the guillotine in such situations

      The huge difference now is these disgustingly rich fuckheads don’t live in any type of proximity to their workers anymore.

        Ironically enough, Elon Musk - posterboy of “rich fuckheads” - actually does live in proximity to his workers. I read a while back that he’d sold off all his houses and lived in the same rental properties that his on-site engineers used.

          I read that he sold his real estate and was staying in a place owned by another billionaire while looking for a place. That was a couple of years ago, I don’t really follow that fuckhead.
