      To the people replying to my previous tweet with "they should solve world hunger instead", thank you so much for bringing that to the billionaires' attention. I'm sure none of them have been working on that problem for the past twenty years.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6abN6UgidY …

      So you‘re saying billionaires are human and possess basic common sense? Preposterous! You can‘t talk like that on Twitter man.

      I might also be saying that if you have a problem with billionaires, you address that in the future by modifying your economics systems, not by complaining about the fact that people who already went through that system are spending their money on new technology.

      I mean, we can do both, right? Though surely the issue is the order of priorities of spending said money, not just that it was spent on a particular thing (and afaik there are pretty reasonable criticisms of the Gates foundation and similar orgs)

      There are tons of reasonable criticisms, but that billionaires don't put a lot of money toward world hunger isn't one of them. The unfortunate fact remains that hunger is more of a political problem than a technology problem, so it is less easy to throw money at it blindly.

      And as their apparent unpopularity in the media and on places like Twitter should make apparent, it's unclear that "billionaires" are really in much of a position to solve political problems - and most people complain loudly when they _do_ involve themselves in politics.

      So I tend to see things like electric cars and space exploration as great things for billionaires to be doing, because they can expend resources towards technology we need whilst simultaneously not involving themselves in political problems where they just make things worse.

      1/ If those are the only possible outcomes then I agree. I dunno about the political aspect though. I'm less convinced about the political point though. Vast sums of money are brought to bare in the US political system that isn't just Bloomberg being behind a podium for a bit.

      2/ People get angry with Koch et al. for doing all sorts of crap but their activities have still been hugely effective. The cynic in me thinks that the rich folk are fine chasing the "inefficient" spend because the effective spend, changing policy, runs counter to biz interests

      It could be. Since I don't know any of these people, it's hard for me to really know what they think or why they do things, to be sure.

      Another possibility would also be that they read Twitter, and they see how horrible everyone is, and they are completely unmotivated to do anything to help as a result :P

          I mean, doesn't everyone have that sensation when they open Twitter? I assume the Germans, or Scandewegians have a word for it by now.
