That’s always been the easiest way to distill their m.o. – “Fuck you, got mine”
Sometimes i think of wealth disparity in terms of an enormous game of musical chairs. Maybe I’m being naive, but i at least like to think that there’s enough chairs for everyone on the planet to get a seat. People carrying that “fuck you, got mine” mindset are hoarding chairs. The worst offenders are hoarding square miles of chairs. At the end of the day when the shit hits the fan though, everybody only needs/fits on a single chair. All that hoarding for something they’ll never use while denying folks who couldn’t get one at all.

It just makes no fucking sense to have that much money.
I’m haunted by a line from Silicon Valley. Rich people use money to keep score.
