Power is like a black hole. This isn't about wealth, it's about power. It's only concern is growing itself.
This is what I learned from the Lord of the Rings.

Becoming a billionaire is never about skill, or 'spending time effectively'. Fast growth is also not a feat of a billionaire.
I think you are grasping for a superhero that doesn't exist.
My school teacher taught me I should be surprised at things like this.

You cannot be 'apart' from capitalism as even if you are, or try to be, outside - your position is still going to be defined as an outsider to capitalism and all the hardships that entails.
And if you get a 'cloud' big or powerful enough - let's look at history, what would happen?
Genocide. That's what happens. Every time.
I believe in personal relationships. Trying to be in good relationships makes this mess endurable and, I believe, safest.

YES YES YES. Some linguistic part of my mind just had an orgasm.
Yes, this cost-saving doesn't directly benefit any billionaire.
Yeah. And they're not even killing off the Germans! This doesn't make any sense!
