The Mega Rich Have Found an Unlikely New Refuge
The modern world has such a ridiculous disconnect. The people fleeing to remote places because of instability are the very same people causing these issues in the first place. Hedge fund managers selling toxic assets bemoaning the uncertainty of the financial world? And what will your island paradise look like with no one to trade with or if the world economy collapses? NZ doesn&#x27;t have much of an economy in itself, what are you going to do, go back to farming?<p>It&#x27;s even more hilarious because the reason NZ is a desirable place to live is because there is little money in politics and there are few class distinctions. How will that change when all the billionaires move there and want to get their way (and are used to the world conforming to the bank account)? Just another place for the wealthy elite of the world to slowly ruin, maybe the next step is the moon?<p>The system is rapidly growing out of control and no one seems to be able to stop or halt the insanity. It&#x27;s like we&#x27;re all marching towards oblivion and everyone knows it but no one has the will to turn the ship around because the system incentivizes short term greed.
