The following short story does not appear in Algorithmic Reality and this is a parody and is no way meant to depict Elon Musk.

The world has gone mad.
We continue to idolize billionaires and inspire them to act and behave like Marvel super villains. Are they?
No. They are the archetypal egomaniacal businessmen and women tightrope walking the law.
Can you blame them? No, We should blame ourselves.
On the one hand, we despise and resent them for their power, and on the other hand, we despise and resent them for their power, and on the other hand propel their egos by investing in them and hoping to reap the short-term rewards.
We have quite literally learned nothing from the early days of prospecting; as it is our greed that is the fuel that fans the flames.
