And in fact, I'm often going to advocate for some sort of like weird voucher based system that allows me to not fund public schools.
Because the greatest good for the greatest number of people is for me to ensure that like me and my rich kid friends all get to send our kids to special schools where like what, you know, fuck anybody else.
Like I don't have any other responsibility for the broader population.
All that actually matters is like me maximizing, you know, my own personal happiness.
But I still want to feel like like I'm a hero for doing it right now.
If I avoid paying taxes in order to, like, spend all of my money investing in open AI so that I can, like, take people's jobs away, like, I want to feel like a hero for doing that.
Because what I'm arguing is that it's best for, you know, the people 500 years from now.
And there's going to be more of them than there are today.
So I'm a hero for, like, getting rich off of this company today, you know?
Sure.
For sure.
Definitely, Gary.
No doubt.

Yeah.
It's the same thing with a lot of these fucking right wing media grifters were like, it's not enough for them to be rich.
It's not enough for them to like get their way politically.
They they they feel like they have like an ethical their ode, like being cool and respected.
And it's the same like these people are all finance ghouls.
They are all like actively fighting to avoid paying taxes and to be able to concentrate ever more power in an ever smaller number of people to destroy the lives of, you know, artists and people who are like working folks in order to like make more short term profits.
