(10,072 posts)Most of us here aren't filthy rich and probably don't believe we ever will be. We are use to making do without a multimillion dollar fortune. We know a lack of money won't necessarily kill us.
But for those who are on the rise, those who are close to wealthy people, money is everything to them. It buys food, clothing and shelter. Without it, they think they will die or at least suffer severely. It is life and death to them.
Money is power in the US. It is life and death in a capitalist economy, it is what will make you successful or not....at least this is what these almost filthy rich believe. They believe multimillions will buy them happiness and everything else. And without it they will suffer severely. It is almost like a hoarder who can't get rid of anything even though they are drowning in their things.
When they vote to continue to corrupt our government with Traitor Trump, they are voting for more wealth for themselves. Not just voting to continue to accept bribes from Russian mobsters, but voting to be safe and secure and surrounded by a house full of things that will eventually drown them and everyone else.
