Countries starving whilst rich individuals send a sports car into space, or spend £5,000,000 on a wedding party, or £100,000,000 on another yacht.

I say blindfold them and line them up on cliff edges, or beside busy highways.

A Martian Sends Another Postcard Home
Sonys are electronic flightless birds and most are treasured for their call they cause the eyes to distract and the brain to soften I have only seen them fly when dead - mostly they perch on the hand or beside the head. Humans shout at them and poke them. They do it all the time. It's the only thing they do. They'll be a pushover.
Bring on the alien invasion. Obliterate us.
Happy 2019.
I find it interesting that you equate wealth with money and the Western consumer model. This seems to be a Western socialist guilt trip to punish themselves based on their greed & envy model..
Just because people have lots of money, doesn't mean they are free. Most 'rich' people are forced to live in guilded cages where they cannot venture out into the real world. They have no real friends and have to be suspicious of everyone around them's motives as most are looking for a quick pay-day.
Can Victoria Beckham go to the local shops in onesie to get a pint of milk without someone taking a picture? The publicity would destroy her brand value. She is forced to be +/- 1lb in weight, have perfect make-up never look happy. Some existence.
I would suggest there are millions of complely happy, satisfied people living in freedom with very little money.
This is true, I don't care about money. It's not even a real thing. Just a promiss. I don't Victoria is as misserable as she looks. I think she might just have resting *** face.
I know some 'extremely wealthy' people and they have no freedom. They have a whole load of expectations on them from shareholders and governments. They have no real friends (except me as I don't 'need' anything from them and I've known them for years).
Their acquantances are shallow 'takers' all with their hand out. They know that EVERYONE is trying stitch them up.
They have nice cars and nice houses but can't go down the pub and play darts. They can't be seen to make mistakes. Their kids cannot do scouts without someone getting their kids to artificially make friends with them - looking to make money somehow.
Then there's the burglary and mugging risks.
They are depressed & lonely people.
I’m not at all surprised by how many self entitled people think that just because somebody is wealthy, they should pay for everything for everyone ~ that’s a terrible shame for them. I’m rarely surprised by people, but maybe that’s because I’ve met a lot of them and they are my special interest ;) And of course, there are lots of people who experience that most terrible of emotions, jealousy (I have and it’s truly horrible) and I think we can all safely say that we have all been and continue to be idiots in one way or another, even if it’s only from time to time. I was an idiot the other week. I cut a wire because it seemed the easiest and quickest way to get it from trailing on the floor. But it turns out it was my phone wire and I will now have to pay £50 to get it repaired if I want to get WiFi! What an idiot! Lol! Never mind!
These people are very well known - and you'd be surprised at how many self-entitled 'people' think that just because they are wealthy, they should pay for everything for everyone.
There's always some jealous grubbing idiot who gives them hassle.
The scouts group was brilliant - the kids are great but, again, on past experience, there's always someone who spoils it. Word gets out.
