They have big egos. Both these things they have to such a degree they think they should tell the rest of the world who wins and who loses, who lives and who dies. Most of the rest of us are students of life and know we are just a little warp and weave and part of the fabric of those who come before us and those who come after. What else explains the right wing billionaires' race to undo green technology, democracy, diversity and world health.
