To think
that everyone wants to be like that

NO that's not what everyone wants!!!
__

To take
what you want to take

To have
what nobody has

To possess
what is unique

To enslave
So that one can rule

To dehumanize
To gaze at the faceless

To rise above everything
to be able to look down on everyone

Who does that remind you of?
A list is also welcome

#Corruption, #graft, illegal #commerce w #enemy powers - #musk is all about adding more #billions to his fortune by #exploiting his illegal role in destruction of federal government while at the same time profiting from international investments funneling who knows how much into his businesses. #Chinese investors privately take stakes in Musk’s companies. #Asset managers have been promoting tech mogul’s ties to #Trump to lure #capital to #xAI, #Neuralink and #SpaceX ft.com/content/66857e1e-a217-4

Janis Kluge, German Institute for Int'l & Security Affairs - American #defense #contractors are about to lose #billions in business from #Europe after US disabled jamming equipment in F-16s, withholding maintenance and parts for systems already purchased:“US weapons are toxic, just as Europeans are making plans to spend hundreds of billions on arms procurement. This is against US interests on so many levels. But for #Trump, the end of US supremacy just can't come soon enough.” #economics

How is it that the executive branch is making spending cuts?
Its we-the-people, via our elected representatives, that decide what and how much we spend.

The folks in the #whiteHouse should doing what they are told to do.

I know this is this a rhetorical questions. They are cutting folks that make thousands in salary so they can give the folks that have #billions another tax cut; the 6th tax cut this century.

#democracy is more than voting.

The newest #dystopian thriller that everyone is talking about these days is little hard to swallow even by #Hollywood standards. The #supervillain is an almost cartoonish sort: The world’s #richest man w a #drug habit, 11 scattered kids, and a penchant for sleeping on couches (if at all). With his posse of young male #tech groupies, he uses his #billions to first buy the #political discourse, #greedy #puppet #president, and finally, through him, the levers of #government inquirer.com/columnists/attyto

@scriptkiddie the fact that @EUCommission and @Umweltbundesamt didn't fine #Microsoft #billions if not more for creating 100% avoidable #eWaste through #ReducedLifecycle is beyond me.

  • Seriously, the reason why the #EU did not mandate #IEC60906-1 for #PowerSockets was the fact that they expected this to cause 700.000t of avoidable eWaste and cost €100B whilst taking 75+ years...

If the oceans die, we die....

If I had won the mega millions 1 billion+ I would have taken the pay me now option.
500+ million.
Now think about this…there are approximately 370 million people in the us.
If I gave away 1 million to each person I would still have 130+ million.
The exception would be if you already had a million you get 0 dollars.
What an event that would be.
Wouldn’t that piss off a lot of people.
Greed is not my god.
Thought.
Some people have billions.

Earth's uniqueness in creating a stable environment for life in a completely hostile space is a miracle. Various life forms have taken #billions of years to build up the natural resources #humans depend on, such as a protective atmosphere, fertile soil, stable seasons, and clean drinking #water.

#JaredKushner adviser has accepted #billions from the sovereign investment funds of countries that he dealt w/as a government official, & is now investing in countries #Trump would deal w/if reelected. #Kushner makes an estimated $40M in management fees, regardless of what happens to the investment, & stands to make much more if the deals are profitable, acc/to a recent letter from #Senate Finance Cmte Chair #RonWyden (D-OR).

@Binder +9001%

Noone has yet explained to me why Benzos, MiskRat & Co. should get #millons if not #billions of money yet they can't really "outwork" their employees on the floors to that extent, nor do they bear any personal risks that would rationalize that amount of compensation.

  • IOW: If someone isn't putting their life on the line to save lives like a firefighter, why should they get paid more than the #paygrade of a# firefighter?

What net benefit to society does a person bring who hoarded so much money that neither them nor their children or grandchildren will ever have to do #wagework in their entire lives??
