When people get in a rage about “the rich”, those kinds of distinctions generally go out the window.
For the jetpack doubters (I was one too), someone posted this link on slashdot. Scroll down a bit and you’ll see a picture of a girl who snapped a picture on her phone of what is very clearly a guy in a jetpack of some kind. The theory is the miners use them to scout new locations to see if enough minerals are present to clear a road to them.
An unpopular opinion I know, but most of the Boomers you’ll ever run across are just average joes who worked shit jobs trying to get by on small amounts of money in a world ruled by the mega rich, just like most of us are. If you have to bring judgement down like some kind of vengeful god, maybe worry a bit more about collateral damage.
If they don’t like their “tax evasions”, then they should change the laws and remove the loopholes that allow it. I’m not a supporter of a wealth tax (i.e. being taxed on something repeatedly because you still happen to own it) no matter who it is that would suffer from it that we all collectively dislike.
