This guy is basically saying a lot of people will have to die (starvation) for the good of the ecconomy. When have I heard that before? Seems like there was a plague recently, and they said this very thing then too. What was it again?

So who will the billionaires and corporations sell stuff to? Each other?

They own more wealth than everyone else, so they don't need anyone else. I don't think people realize just how much money the top 1% has. The top 1% has more wealth than the bottom 90% combined. They don't need us anymore. They can sustain themselves on just selling to eachother.

Will the Epstein class just abuse and eat the humans?

Basically.

    How many TVs can they sell to each other? How many cars? How many airline flights and vacations? They may have the money but can never be the market
