They got the whole world in their hands Worth north of a trillion dollars, (plus or minus a billion dollars here and there), the unnamed obscenely rich, (which top 15 billionaires projected to become trillionaires can be located on the computer courtesy typing Top 15 billionaires projected to become trillionaires into the Google search bar and clicking EuroNews tab) will possess more money than the GDP (gross domestic product = the total monetary or market value of all the finished goods and services produced within a country's borders in a specific time period) of many countries, including Switzerland and most African countries: many talking heads bet their bottom dollar and float the name of Elon Musk who leads the list could become the first trillionaire by 2027, with a net worth value "growing at an average rate of 109.88 percent every year." A plutocracy (from Ancient Greek p???t?? (ploûtos) 'wealth' and ???t?? (krátos) 'power') or plutarchy is a society ruled or controlled by people of great wealth or income, whose indiscriminate whim "Rule by might" often called "kratocracy" which comes from the Greek word "kratos" meaning "power" and essentially describes a government where those with the most strength or power are able to rule, often through force or coercion; the phrase "might makes right" encapsulates this concept. I fear a dystopian future providing sinister combination regarding concentration of immense wealth linkedin with excessive might spells (in my simple mind) absolute zero freedom for those who elected said coterie, whereby filthy rich power hungry consort fostering closest approximation of immortality videre licet thru seeds of life and white lily (self declare) themselves titans banish constitutional and democratic freedoms to dictate enslavement of the hoi polloi, especially those reduced to near pennilessness (case in point - yours truly or me) will be at the beck and call (twenty four seven) forced to labor to sustain the means of production in exchange (where robots serve as cruel taskmasters) for basic survival on meager rations living social in shoddy constructed collective (abominable) barrack type accommodations lacking modern amenities such as plumbing for washing and heating, nipping in the bud any predilection to indulge scant spare moments already spoken - for domestic upkeep of spartan shelter against the sheltering sky, (not even measurable in hours) particularly reading or writing, which luxuries banned replaced by forcibly attending mandatory group think workshops delineating paying homage to those who wielded the reins of power and banking courtesy cryptocurrency pittance doled out and only usable at so called government decreed canteens, and should any discovered evidence reveal black market antics, would be immediate cause for execution at the hands of randomly chosen jury comprising men and women among the masses. Bidding wars among the top tier commandeered, lorded over, and regulated the level of countless plutocrats twenty first contemporaries disproportionately wealthy among the rat pack regarding those monetarily endowed (inherited or bullied) true blue titans of American industry ranked next in line incorporated olde monied class, and nouveau riche which closest entity to bourgeoisie analogous to robber barons among populace of yesteryear) ruled over déclassé indigent outliers wherein I grovel along until death do me part.
