Frankly, I think he is a bit out of his mind, but because he is supper rich, we call him eccentric... if he was a common bloke, he would be plain crazy
Well, we have to stick with the paradigm that the controllers prefer.
Part (a large part) of that is rich people get to talk about serious issues that they have no clue about ...just because they are rich. Because, as you suggest, money is more important than intelligence.. or experience...or expertise, or qualifications...or morals...or principals.
If you're rich, you just get to buy the whole debate for a few minutes. That's why Richard Branson is trying to buy the weather. I'm very keen to get his opinion on that. Aren't you? You should be, he owns an Island.
Then people whose jobs depend on it listen politely, conferring acceptance on them, while implying that the rest of us no matter how, ugly supid or repugnant could also be a celebrity and taken seriously, if only we were prepared to screw everybody else over just to make a buck.
The other side of the paradigm is that poor people are usually more useful to the controllers as examples of stupidity.
Dragged out on quiz shows so they can get all questions wrong. That's why there are so many 'scroungers on benefits' reality tv shows.
Just designed to take your minds off the people who screwed you out of all your money and then hid their ill gotten gains offshore.
In these post truth, post intelligence post binary times, one thing remains constant. Bull****.
