When it comes to new technologies, advancements, or discoveries, rarely is it the people who made them that get most of the profit made from them, the people that make the most are the ones that exploited them. It's crazy that our best and brightest are more times than not indentured to our most greedy.

There needs to be laws and regulation to prevent and stop excessive greed and exploitation.

"Do you know how hard it is to keep the plebs just happy enough that they don't burn down my property?"

It is easy to get rich, as long as you have the moral compass of a cactus.

First I'd code some malware that specifically targets old people to try to scam them out of money. With that money I'd short out companies on the brink of going bankrupt and help by doing things that cost them money but aren't technically illegal. With that money I'd start my own business selling crap bought from overseas, with students I can underpay, so I exploit both my customers and my workforce. Then with that money I'd bribe politicians to give me tax breaks.

There, now I am a multi millionaire.

Henry Ford would've begged to differ.
