    Exactly. If you do nothing about greed and selfishness/narcissism then nothing changes, you just have smarter greedy people. :/

      Things like good public education make society more pleasant to live in for everyone including greedy opportunists and their families.

      Same with balancing resource extraction against environmental stability.

      What billionaires are doing seems totally illogical and self destructive even from a greed perspective.

      Even if we assume they’re thinking they can escape on a space ark it makes no sense to want to live in the cold, harsh, hostile environment of a space instead of on the one planet that we can naturally breathe on that also happens to grow delicious things and stuff.

      From no perspectives can this be a smart move, I refuse to believe it!
