Technology should be providing a much better lifestyle for ordinary people our wealth as societies continues to grow with each passing decade and all the benefits are going to the super rich as the wealth imbalance grows and the rich can buy politicians, regular people, radio networks and TV stations with pocket change. It is easier to accumulate money if it is not taxed and the average billionaire pays 8% in income taxes while the average worker or well-paid worker pays 30 to 40%.
One of the reasons why we don't have a better economy and world is assholes like this work for the rich and con the poor, ignorant, stupid and bigoted with culture wars driving social division with anger, resentment, entitlement and rage. They depend on a propaganda network and now an alternative reality media universe where spin, lies and deception for profit are the norm. Where giving people what they want to hear for ratings and profit instead of facts that can help them and to promote con artists as politicians.
