This is the type of behavior that gets you into a position to blow a quarter million dollars on yourself in one afternoon. To be able to do that, you have to train your mind to ignore the suffering of thousands of others. You have to be willing to watch a lot of people commit suicide 6 months after they missed a balloon payment because your factory wouldn't give them a 49c raise after 4 years. The core idea is what I just said, that you could never amass huge wealth without first learning to turn a blind eye to the suffering of others. I'm not talking about building wealth in a business, I'm talking about personal wealth you use to make yourself feel better, at 250k a day. I do feel bad for the 19 year old, that's not old enough for me to hold anyone accountable for their life choices.
So fuck these people, fuck their laurels, fuck their donation of .00001 percent of the money they didn't have work for to get their name on a charity list, fuck this ceo that was so greedy and psychopathic the he could look someone right in the eye during an 8 hour boat ride, knowing that he cheeped out on their safety, their future, to line his own pockets. Do you know how much these 5 billionaire princes would care if me and everyone in my town died horribly. Not even a little bit. Not even if they personally caused it. I feel like I'm treating them fairly. To me, psychopathy isn't "a fun Ayn Rand book about telling poors to get fucked" its a birth defect in the anterior cortex, that gives the worlds worst people a strong advantage in business and finance. The part of their brain that processes guilt and shame and empathy is underdeveloped, so they become serial killers, and CEO's mostly. I seriously doubt all these people were psychopaths, it's only 1/33 by birth. But being born into wealth has an extremely high yield of the psychopath's cousin, the sociopath.
Go down to Wall street at lunch, and bring a life sized doll of a child with you. Then put it face down on the sidewalk, and go sit on a bench. You can watch your betters talk on their cell phones as they step over the body, looking a bit annoyed at the inconvenience they've been subjected to, and feeling a momentary flash of self pity on the way to spagos to spend your next years salary on a truffle reduction they feel like they deserve because they won at gambling with money they were handed. But what happens if they loose at gambling? Then their life is still worth 2000 times what yours is. This is what happens when you let whoever has the most money make the rules. You get psychopathic rules that don't make sense and keep everyone except the psychopath poor and suppressed.
Did anyone else see this GM trial? I did. The people who did this didn't even bother to show up, they sent a scapegoat, paid him a bonus, and called it a day after they profited from the deaths of countless strangers. The guy who did show up in court, didn't even look slightly ashamed. Like the worst murderers, where they stand there in front of the victims families and laugh about what a good job they did on the murder. You don't think it happens? It happens. Fortunately, many of the judges are hardcore like me, and just extinguish that person's future on the spot.
Those judges are supposed to represent society, and I agree with them. They do represent me, and if I saw someone laughing at the worst pain in another person's life, I'd do everything in my power to make sure they died horribly. So if you think my view is psycho, then you must think that about every judge that puts a psychopath behind bars. We put killers in prison, but I think it's widely agreed that there's a special place in hell for people who can laugh off another persons tragedy and go throw themselves a party. We just ignore it if the person is rich. Society isn't super smart. How is this relevant? Every super rich person I've been friends with IRL, and there were a good number, is exactly like this sub guy. I'll take everything for myself, and if other people get hurt, that's their fucking problem. That's the thinking that produces wealth at this level.
GM may have killed at least dozens of innocent people to save less money than their brass spends on lunch (on a single day), or maybe a submarine ride, but you gotta give em a break. These people are heroes that support us all by paying taxes because they care so much about America right?
GM Endangered Lives to Save Less than $1 per Car
In the past decade, over three hundred people have died in
car accidents involving GM vehicles with ignition switch issues. Many of these deaths were attributed to airbag failure. General Motors has acknowledged that the deaths of at least 13 people were related to defective auto parts, and to date, more than a million GM vehicles have already been recalled by the company for having faulty ignition switches and wiring defects.
An ignition switch defect may cause the car’s ignition to turn to the off position while the vehicle is running, leading to the failure of airbags to deploy upon a collision, as well as issues with steering and applying the brakes. This defect has been associated mostly with Chevy Cobalt vehicles, but General Motors has also recalled the following vehicles:
- 2005-2010 Chevy Cobalt
- 2006-2010 Pontiac Solstice
- 2007-2010 Pontiac G5
- 2006-2011 Saturn Sky
- 2006-2011 Chevy HHR
- 2003-2007 Saturn Ion
According to an internal GM document provided to U.S. congressional investigators, in 2005, General Motors opted against replacing an ignition switch used in many of its assembly lines because it would have added about a dollar to the cost of each unit. This means that for almost a decade, the company was already aware of the defect in their ignition switches, before eventually deciding to recall the affected vehicles.
If a rich person is talented, I respect that. If they are honest, I respect that. But I don't respect people just for having money, or make assumptions that they "know what they're doing" Al Capone was the richest guy around in his day, and when they finally figured out his genius plan, it was - if someone tells me no on a business deal, I hit them on the head with a stick as hard as I can. You don't need to be a genius to be rich. You just have to be willing to step over a screaming widow and "TAKE IT". (that's a sign that you are strongs). The single greatest skill to attaining wealth is being able to look someone right in the eye and lie to them. If you don't believe me, I can sell you a youtube course on Amazon drop shipping. Just give me 300 dollars right now, and you'll be rich later this month, by which I mean, I'll be rich later this month. Have you thought about self publishing on Audible? What if you give me 5 grand to align the furniture in your house to be "Fung Schue"? That way the energy flowing through your fucking sofa can align with the stars. Like I said, I've known a lot of rich people.
So no, I don't feel sorry for these 5 dead people. Maybe the kid and the old guy trying to relive his greatest memory. I would never in a million years, no matter how much money I had, spend a quarter million dollars on myself in an afternoon. That's an entire African village, dead from starvation. Even if I felt like I was 1000 times as important as one of those villagers, the math still doesn't work out. Their entire lives, gone so I could enjoy a single day? I'm not a monster, I couldn't do that. I feel sorry for the 700 homeless people that will die in the snow this year because these people spent 1 million dollars on themselves doing something totally insignificant and pointless then immediately said "wish I could help, but there's no blanket money left in the budget after "priority business expenditures for deep sea research into whether or not the titanic sank"".
You can buy a lot of fucking blankets and ignition switches for 1 million dollars. Fuck you news station, why don't you show me a story about those 13 families that burned to death in car crashes so one of our "heroes" could literally save one dollar. Because I did care that those people died, every single one of those nameless suburbanites deaths was a tragedy, because they put their trust in their wealthy overlords, and got our American house special, the smallpox blanket.
