In a hundred and twenty or thirty years or something, the dollar will have inflated by 1000 times, so a billion dollars then will be equal to a million dollars now. It’ll cost a billion dollars for a nice four bedroom house.

But we’ll have had a hundred more years to produce anti billionaire propaganda, so a lot of people, especially teenagers, will need it explained to them that being a billionaire isn’t so bad now. The Marxist-Leninists will all be saying that Cyborg Bernie Sanders is an evil billionaire, and us reasonable leftists will be explaining that a billion dollars is just what it costs these days to own a residence in your home state and also in DC, which is necessary for working as a senator.

What we’ll really need to look out for by then is the trillionaires. Good for nothing parasites. There’s no excuse for one person to own a trillion dollars while there are people living on the streets who can’t even afford a measly ten thousand dollars for a cheeseburger meal.

    Nice fantasy, the climate of earth will be uninhabitable for human life and I think that will be just neat.

          That’s not much consolation to everything alive today. I think the existence of life is pretty morally neutral, but the suffering were causing for the life that already exists is inexcusable.

      I kind of hope for Nuclear Armageddon that’s something the planet can recover from climate on the other hand it’s done. But honestly it it maybe to late for it to make a difference.
