Let's say there is a way to get rid of , but it takes ~5 years and needs regular financial support. The more support the faster the change.

BUT you get no immediate benefit or feedback. Your suppoet goes to a black hole of uncertainty.

How much would you be willing to spend monthly?

HYPOTHESIS: I suspect many realize its bad, everything is fucked and many want change but only a small fraction is willing to waive or even downsize for a limited time or simply just take the risk.

If I gave you a penny for every hair on your head, you’d have about $10,000.

if I gave you a penny for every cell in your body, which number approximately 20 to 30 trillion, you’d have about the same amount of money as Elon Musk, who has 250 billion.

Envision a New Utopian City…to Replace What They Ruined

What do billionaires do with all their money? Maybe they buy off a Supreme Court justice. Maybe they get their kicks from diving to the extreme depths of an ocean in a tiny metal capsule. Maybe they start a space company to fly into outer space for fun.

Or, perhaps they fantasize about building a brand-new California city from scratch,

The billionaires have money to burn.

Moscow has financial reserves abroad that no one is talking about.

Sanctioned billionaires and the reserves of the Russian Central Bank are at the center of a search for Russian funds. But Russia is also using a shadow banking system to accumulate state controlled funds abroad.

Adam Conover has a very low opinion of Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk and Sam Bankman Fried. In this video he explains why with some top quality swearing.
