Even the Koch Brothers Weren’t This Brazen

Mamma Mia! I wonder if the Mario Brothers know how to solve this issue
- Give that man in green a mushroom
I mean the Koch brothers walked so these goons could run. They literally started the trend of using dark money in politics. The book Dark Money is about THEM.
I don't see a reason to place oligarchs in a hierarchy, they're all trash.
Why bother? No one gets to that position by caring about others.
When will these people ever have enough? It's a sickness. I mean, seriously.
- Many humans are fucking hot garbage (I mean that in the double entendre) and are basically so focused on their competition and their legacy that wealth doesn’t mean anything for them. And so many other shitty humans want nothing more than to be in that position because there’s some genetic wiring for some people that their best feeling is being better than someone else, and now that’s taken to the extremes we see today.
- Bunch if billionaires scheming on how to make money through high crimes against America. Like...go sail in your fucking yachts and get the fuck out of our White House you insanely greedy fucks.
Depending on what timeline we are on, it might not work out so well for them in the long run. Fingers crossed.
- Sounds like a job for The Adjuster
United Health Care CEO Brian Thompson was pretty brazen - just saying.
- Maybe Musk can be as brazen as United Health Care CEO Brian Thompson.
  
  I don't think Musk is capable enough. In fact I would challenge or even triple dog dare Musk to not use any security from here on out. I know he won't because he's not man enough.
Because they don’t have to.
People don’t care enough to stop them.
- I don't think it'll be much longer before they have no choice but to care.
What I'd like to know is was Andreesen always this much of an asshole?
I knew he went VC and figured he was at least kinda douchey, but I didn't follow his arc since the 90s where most of us just knew him as the guy that worked on Mosaic and founded Netscape...
