Because nearly all is never enough for some. It's not about private jets, or mega-yachts, or private islands, or laws not applying to them or what they can or cannot spend in a lifetime, or a thousand lifetimes. It's about control.

In their world, it is their right to control. It is their destiny to control. And why would they think otherwise as they have all the money in the world to prove their point? They must be right or else they wouldn't have the endless fortune they have.

The 1% don't care for the unpredictability of life as that at least leaves the chance that they may not always be in the 1%. So control is needed. They shape education, public perception, media, religion, politics, policy, into the image of their choosing.

You'd think that after centuries of evidence that one underlying rule of thumb would have become a staple in any given society: billionaires should not exist. Because we won't get Bruce Wayne. We'll get Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
