      Historically speaking, the ultra rich tell themselves and each other how smart they are, and circle-jerk each other into self-affirmations about superiority, but previous wealthy societies always end up in violent revolution with their heads all rolling around on the floor because they pushed the lower classes too far - they never learn this lesson.

      When it happens this time, there won’t be an iota of pity from me.

      It should be… House owner…sorry, they forgot that millionaire means next to nothing now.

      Whoever buys that house will one day in 30 years be a millionaire. 6ft under probably, but a proper millionaire.

          Whoever owns the houses now are all temporary millionaires. Temporary because the banks just cycle owners. The houses start at 1 million under BoA, then 1mil again by Wells. Just back and forth owner to owner million by million. Nobody owns anything. The banks do.
