That just blows my mind. These people could go down in history as some of the greatest human beings to ever live, having used their wealth to eradicate disease and poverty for all. Instead they just...hoard it. Why the fuck do they do that? Like I honestly start to doubt these people are human at this point. Their obscene wealth isn't just obscene, it's absurd. They could literally do anything with that money and they just...don't do anything with it at all. I don't even have the words to describe how monstrous they must be. Even if they didn't want to help people, they still don't do anything with their money beyond just trying to accrue more of it. How the fuck can they exist?

Worth noting for the libs that it’s not just these people — the U.S. government could be doing this too, and also actively refuses

At this point libs in the US seem to be under the impression that the government cannot ever do anything positive, and only exists due to "rule of law" or something.

Considering they can hire skilled authors to write their biographies (and skilled lawyers to sue critics) they certainly will write their own entry in the history books
