      Not if he dies a horrific public death before that happens. I definitely wouldn’t wish death on anyone. Not a gruesome death like that. What, with his genitals smashed, his guts removed, and his eyes skewered by hot pokers all while he’s alive screaming in agony as the world watches. It would be horrible to wish that one someone, and we shouldn’t.

        If something that cruel we’re to happen we would need to honor his greatness with a burial monument publicly accessible to everyone. As long as people don’t urinate or defecate on the monument it would be great.

    At some point those numbers mean nothing anymore. What then? Maybe we are already there.

      Of course it means nothing to us. To them it’s like getting high score in the arcade - they all want their name and number at the top and will happily shit on anyone below them.

      Stocks value don’t represent the actual value of a company, it represents the the value that a buyer believes it is worth.

    Natural course for capitalism. Money makes money is a feedback loop that naturally concentrates wealth.

    Only options are to ban money from making money, or eliminate the need for money
