    @glyph@mastodon.social @jalefkowit@hachyderm.io Back when I was working for a hedge fund, I used to keep a list of all the insane shit these billionaires would say, out loud, in public Like when Tom Perkins compared tensions between the SF middle class and the tech-billionaires to Kristallnacht Or when Stephen Schwartzman compared closing the carried interest loophole to Hitler invading Poland Or Robert Benmosch saying that the public reaction to multi-million dollar bonuses paid to AIG execs (after they'd received a $182 billion gov't bailout) was as bad as lynchings in the south To answer your question: At a certain level of wealth, people absolutely the fuck *cannot* hear themselves when they talk
