Billionaires are trying to be Gods. They believe Ray Kurzweils's crap about merging with AI where they become immortal.

They represent less than 1% of humans.

So to say Humans seem hell bent ... is wrong.

Richie Riches think they will become immortal so they don't need a planet or resources or health insurance.

Blaming the masses for the horrific decisions of the 1% world rulers is absurd and disgusting.
