Just Sit There Passively
And don't get too angry at CEOs and billionaires and millionaires when they keep grinding you into the dust and they keep getting wealthier. It's a lot easier to take that type of position when you are ridiculously wealthy and/or a political elite living a life of privilege.
Billionaires and millionaires never have to worry about being denied healthcare. Or going broke because of medical bills.
Or having your neighborhood poisoned with forever chemicals. Or only eating heavily processed cheap food using ingredients banned anywhere else in the world because that's all you can afford.
Those moral choices are easier when you are on the right side of income disparity and you never have any concerns and your voice is always heard.

I don't care what they say or do, billionaires and robber baron CEOs are not our friends. While I personally have no been pushed past my point of no return, I'm cognizant that some are being pushed way paste their breaking point. While I don't endorse violence, I understand the frustration and sense of hopelessness in these situations. Im not losing any sleep over it.

I'm confused. Wasn't Preezy Shit Midas' Unaffordable Care Act promised to fix all of this?  I know obama wouldn't lie.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I wonder if that rant applies to all CEO's or if Bezos and Warren Buffett and Mark Cubam and the like are exempt because they are left leaning? IIII mean how far does your hypocrisy go?

Can I wish ill to the CEO of Planned Parenthood?
If The Vaccine is deadly as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, millions now living would have died.
