Most of the misery in the world is the direct result of too much money in too few unscrupulous hands. This is not only the cause of the vast majority of human suffering, but also of climate change. (lemmy.world)

I think of giant monsters. Kaiju.

A normal ant is no problem. An ant the size of a skyscraper is a problem.

Money is the size here. A human with a billion dollars is a giant monster kaiju.

It ain't the species it's the size.

    And even more importantly, you have to figure out what is causing the ants to grow that big in the first place. There are billions of ants on the planet. Killing the couple giant ones does nothing if other ants can just grow to the same size.
