“Monster Liberty”: That’s how the otherwise excellent closed-captioning service in the auditorium at Pennridge High School interpreted “Moms for Liberty,” while one of several dozen citizens who had waited in line to lambast the group spoke at the podium.

Because people having tens of millions of dollars in assets is a societal failure. Let alone people having hundreds of Millions, or billions, or trillions. You don’t get to be a person that wealthy by being a good person. It requires deception theft and oppression. And it only gets exponentially worse. Because these bad people have outsized pools of resources to further damage society.
Until we as a society place reasonable limits on personal wealth and assets this will get worse.
