    That’s not the point he was raising at all.

    The world is provably (*) broken. Economically, environmentally. You name it. The system we have is unsustainable, and unsustainable means that it will be eventually unable to sustain itself and inevitably collapse. It is causing suffering to billions of humans and uncountable living beings.

    And given what we know about most billionaires’ personal lives, it takes a certain kind personality to be jealous of their miserable lives.

    What you call jealousy has nothing to do with wanting things to change. Try compassion and empathy, tinged by fear.
