Stinking Rich: The Four Myths of the Good Billionaire
by Carl Rhodes
Billionaires are an ultra-elite social class whose numbers are growing alongside their obscene wealth while others struggle, suffer or even die.
They represent a scourge of economic inequality, but how do they get away with it? A set of dangerous and deceptive inter-connected myths portrays them as a ‘force for good’:
- the ‘heroic billionaire’ asserts they are gallant protagonists of the American Dream gone global
- the ‘generous billionaire’ pretends that their philanthropic efforts and personal good deeds should be lauded for generosity and benevolence
- the ‘meritorious billionaire’ insists that extreme wealth is a worthy reward for individual hard work and talent
- the ‘vigilante billionaire’ claims to be able to solve the world’s biggest problems where bureaucrats and politicians have failed.
