Humanity's Money

This book is intended as a renewed call to unite the planet under a single government with equal rights for all citizens of the world, get rid of monarchies and military industrial complexes, tax billionaires out of existence by setting a wealth cap at $999 million, and using the trillions acquired through these measures to introduce shelter, access to clean water and food, education, healthcare and stable speedy internet connections as basic human rights. The main focus here is on the utter uselessness of the billionaire class. Arguments for the benefits of their presence are deconstructed and debunked one after another with an AIDOP (AI Debates on One's Publications) session at the end of the book; handling a debate with ChatGPT on the counterarguments presented. The arguments and counterarguments tackle speed, efficiency, additional consequences to elimination, motivation, spending habits, whether getting rid of billionaires is essential for getting rid of cronyism, whether extreme wealth concentration has been historically beneficial, philanthropy, balance of power, recruitment and training, private diplomacy, whether billionaires provide real value to customers, and market accountability. Key takeaways from the book: - Just like they sought to monopolize markets, they may seek to monopolize opinions; threats to freedom of expression do not only come from governments, corporates have the power to silence dissent.- A person does not maintain their position in the current list of the wealthiest people on the planet by following the rules of society; they do so by manipulating rules through their influence on legislation and regulation.
