Silly question but why don’t these guys spend some cash on endowments for great causes ? I know Bezos’s first wife has done amazing things and we have Buffet and Gates but it amazes me why these oligarchs do not see the animosity building toward them.

You stop Medicaid to 75m people and you will see a violent reaction. This hits rural America hard and they have guns. You deport a few hundred thousand Venezuelans and they will make reaction to Bay of Pigs look like a party.

They have enough money to be completely walled off in their own world of silly looking clothes and other weird shit that they think looks cool. They also have private security, likely courtesy of Erik Prince. They have no idea what's going on with the proles, and I really don't think they care.

Sounds it. Even Roman rulers lived in fear of the mob.
