We have allowed political sociopaths to create a world designed for other sociopaths, not decent humans. #Capitalism sorts the sociopaths to the top.
"Sure, the worst people imaginable run these companies [Facebook, Google, Apple, etc], but the reason they’re able to yield to their most venal impulses and succeed is because the world has been re-arranged to make sociopathy and greed into fitness factors.”

The same psychological traits that put some men behind bars put others in boardrooms and state houses."
