I have a working theory that billionaires also don't really understand money and numbers.
People don't understand the difference between a million and a billion until they can visaully see the difference. As someone else pointed out, $5 million is 0.5% of their wealth. It's pocket change for a billionaire. However, billionaires are acting like it's going to break the bank.
Or billionaries just love to hoard their wealth to make their imaginary numbers go up.
It's physiological. They don't like other people dictating to them how to do things.
Soend 100 million yo build your own infrastructure of spend 10 million yo use your neighbor's. Of course your going to call your neighbors extortionists, even though you're the billionaire that has all the money and your neighbors just want to be paid for a service.
This is what the new billionaires are: they think everything should be free for them, because everyone gets everything for free, right? It's how they can pay their serfs so little money because they too get everything for free, so everyone is happy, right?
Right?
It really is how the dotcomites and techbros see the world. They built everything for a song (and having the luck to be born with access to the materials to build their empires), so obviously the entire world that's NOT a corporate entity should be handed to them for free.
remember the story of the liberterians that dint want to pay taxes, and they couldnt afford the public services that wouldve been need to use in order to take out trash, waste managment, etc. they abandoned shortly,. and another one where they were driven out by bears, because they decided to be "self sufficients.
The bears in the New Hampshire debacle is a thing of legend.
Just out of curiosity, how hard are those pipes to sabotage?
That'll just pollute the ocean.
They should raise the price for having to deal with this slander.
