    Isn’t this just a replay of the late Roman empire?

    Wealth, power and control gets concentrated to smaller and smaller groups of people … they get desperate for more power and co opt and manipulate the existing system to get their way … they don’t get their way and do even more extreme changes and create chaos

    Everything falls apart and everyone loses everything.

      The 1% have become untouchable, thanks to technology. They also don’t have to satisfy us by ruling like a king, they just buy whatever they want and move on, like locusts.
