Witnessing a few (organic??!!) convos between liberals lamenting how "left leaning" billionaires don't organize, and help save democracy.Newsflash: People who pursue money to the point of becoming billionaires simply do not "lean left."
Lots of folks don't realize this because: Corporately owned media (and the PR flaks who surround billionaires)
1) are really- unlikely to explain how much a billion dollars of personal wealth is. It's an obscene amount.
2) know that spinning a stories about "heroic" billionaires protects their clients and their own jobs.
There -may- be a few left leaning ultra wealthy/millionaires...
But ALL billionaires exploit. Full stop.
Billionaires exploit in order to **climb up hierarchies of wealth.**
Both billionaires and right wingers LIKE and believe in hierarchy based living. It's really about that simple.
