They don't seem to understand this boardgame of life where they have all this wealth is at a precarious tipping point. Yes they will end up with all the money but that will just make them a big target when those with nothing flip the table.

Greed really is a disease.

Usually when educated countries with good resources start losing the good resources and comfort they get pretty rebellious.

It's very likely this directly contributes to the current state of US unrest.

Hopefully the company people don't like unrest and solve it the way the US has in the past. Try to make the people comfortable again.
