The poor and middle pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the very rich pay lawyers – and the ultra-rich pay politicians.
The billionaire death cult that steers humanity’s destiny doesn’t do existential crises. One of the symptoms of the pathology known as “billionaire brain” is an inability to see beyond their own short-term gain. They would sack the planet for a few more stones on the pointless mountain of wealth.
And we can see it happening.

@tobeB what amazes me is how *cheap* a politician can be. Absolute bargain. When I see the declared political donations required to get a seat in the House of Lords, I sometimes wonder about starting a gofundme. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cash-for-Honours_scandal #politics #corruption #UKPol #wealth #finance

@tobeB It disturbs the profit. The hail over profit. So it is silenced. Profit is fascism. Under this circumstances. Knowing what ist happening and let ist happen.
