    Like most parasites, they have an important place in the ecosystem.

    Ticks for instance are a source of food for several species.

    Billionaires shouldn’t exist.
    There should be a hard upper limit on wealth somewhere around the $100 million mark.
    An amount where you can still invest your money risk-free at ~1% above inflation and live a life of plenty without lifting a finger, forever.
    Any property, company, or thing in general worth more than $100 million should never be owned by one person alone.

    If anything, I have ever so slightly less problems with billionaires like Gabe Newell (Valve ceo) since he’s doing something constructive (proton/steam deck) that, while it does absolutely help line his pockets, is still helpful to people who play games.

    Though on a moral level I personally feel not allowed to like him because he’s a billionaire. That sentiment is spread across all billionaires for me. Either way, in general I don’t like them because 99.9999999% of all billionaires do as much as possible to fuck over literally everyone else.

    I want to be one and buy land and develop a village and live on a mansion on a hill overlooking it. Not for profit or anything, make the houses affordable (maybe rent them out and then sell it to the tenants after a certain time, factoring paid rent as a discount?) for nice people. Just have myself a wee community and LARP as a 17th century lord (the nice kind)

    The easiest way to identify enemies of freedom and liberty. Count their net worth.

    in the (translated) Words of Knorkator:

    The world doesn’t need billionaires imagine how beautiful it would be without you! Empathy and reason instead of greed and scam fresh air, green forests, clean seas.

    The world doesn’t need billionaires and we will even achieve this without guns: No, we won’t kill you and we won’t imprison you, on the opposite: you will be millionaires!
