No, Really, I do.
Okay, maybe not as much as I could. In fact, I'm pretty sure that what they are likely to suffer is something I'm not going to go out of my way to save them from. Oh, hell... I'm probably going to :evilgrin: over it. So I suppose the subject line here might be a little... *ahem*... disingenuous.
But did I get your attention?
Good. Because part of me
actually does feel badly for those poor, wretched, multi-millionaires (Naturally, this does not include progressive/liberal/empirical-minded multi-millionaires who already
know what's going down). Why?
Because they're not 'Multi-Billionaires'.
Let me explain;
It is the Multi-Billionaires, whether they be individuals or corporations (not that there's a legal difference at this point), who have control over the system right now. Right now, there are many, many multi-millionaires, some with even hundreds of millions of dollars, who think they are in the same league as the Multi-Billionaires. Even Dick 'go fuck yourself' Cheney thinks that he has some kind of dynasty at this point.
Sorry Richard, but you've been a tool for forces far greater than yourself. Your pull in DC was just valuable enough to make you
http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-politicians/republicans/dick-cheney-net-worth/">worth a fraction of that of the lowest of your True Masters.
If you are not a Multi-Billionaire, then you are not immune to the collapse.
(We'll talk about that 'collapse' in a few.)
You cannot buy a private island, rotating nautical security along with 24/7 surveillance, and the loyalty of every person on your security team or even in your own family to a certainty for very long with only a few hundred million dollars. Sure, you could do your very, very best to create an autonomous environment with renewable resources, but for how many generations? After you've sunk every iota of currency-value into your holdings, what becomes of you then? Sure you could have a wonderful self-supporting system to sustain your little world, but without the market, without the security infrastructure of the nation, and without the force of law, what are you when the rest of the world is left hungry?
How funny is it that by investing your 'wealth' into a communist model, you become a target. What? Did you think that you'd remain at the top of the heap in your world for very long and be the only ones eating tuna out of a can while everyone else ate cat food?
How many 'nobles' did the hordes take out in the hours leading up to the Bastille?
I feel very sorry for the millionaires that believe their Multi-Billionaire big brothers have everything set up for them when the masses finally turn after the collapse. I feel sorry for them because they send 'their people' to shop at fine places and bring back gourmet foods, but will find themselves without the niceties after the collapse. I feel sorry for them because they will not be able to maintain the loyalty and vigilance of those they promised to 'pay' with funds they can no longer manage or even collect after the collapse they've helped to engineer. I feel sorry for them because they believe that there will be enough enforcement available, despite the destruction of unions they all seek, to maintain their security. I feel sorry for them because they cannot comprehend what they have allowed or helped to bring about.
I feel bad for them because they believe themselves above the world they live in. I feel bad for them because they would read something like this and dismiss it out of hand because that, after all, is not their
current reality. Well, 'reality' is about to catch up to them.
We've tapped the oil. The Multi-Billionaire corpeople have made sure that the flow keeps us at 'willing-to-do-anything-addict' stage. We've

many of you mere 'multi-millionaires'.
This will be the most severe collapse in the history of humanity. You poor mutli-millionaire sods have been bamboozled by people that
actually have a chance of escaping the fallout and guiding their own progeny into a new future that
they control. Where are you Multi-Millionaires in this future full of hungry people?
You're dog food.
The civilized person in me feels very, very badly for all of you.
The historian and part German Shepherd in me is just wagging his tail.
Send this to any 'conservative' millionaires you know.
