@dckim@mastodon.social @swachter@toot.boston @gknauss@mastodon.social I mean, no one is claiming they sleep on a trillion in cash. The point is the wealth, in whatever form, translates directly into power. That is power they have taken. It is authoritarian in nature. That's the real problem.

@veronica@mastodon.online @swachter@toot.boston @gknauss@mastodon.social very well said. It essentially amounts to a fascism in the sense that they dictate for that concentration of wealth. And that is where there is the potential for danger, harm, and corruption. The potential influence is too strong and broad. Is it even possible for a person with that much wealth to dispose of the wealth? I think Bill Gates tried to do it. Probably just felt guilty for having too much.
