%Billionaires Gone Wild A few stories about centibillionaires — men whose net worth exceeds $100 billion — and their role in our society: · In 2022 Elon #Musk, the richest man in the world, purchased Twitter. Since then he has turned the platform into a racist cesspool, overrun by literal Nazis. · Last year #Skydance Media, run by #DavidEllison — the son of #LarryEllison, the world’s 6th richest man — acquired #Paramount, which includes #CBS. The new management put #BariWeiss, a conservative pundit with no relevant experience, in charge of CBS News. https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/billionaires-gone-wild #ellison #plutocracy
