Yes we could if the rich paid their fair share in taxes and didn't hog all the wealth. All they do is drizzle some tiny amount to the public here and there to appear generous and get tax benefits.

The vast majority of their money just gets wasted for their egomaniacal projects in an attempt to be remembered forever.

None of the shit they are developing is going to safe us from extreme climate change. In fact those same people are a heavy driving force behind climate change.

Right, capitalists suck, we all know this.

Comic could have had the rich cunts behind oil companies withholding climate data, car manufacturers lying about the safety of their products, housing companies kicking out a poor family, etc.

Instead they chose to go after the technology instead of the people or their evil choices.

Hence it being Luddite shit.
