2. yeah, but it's still a death sentence

mr pig is riding a bucking bronco as is: imagine if a populist demagogue like Huey Long, for example, came along and said 'let's kill them all off, take all their wealth, which is tens of trillions, and try fix the world through technology and an honest global communal effort!'...heck, i'd join up!
one thing for certain. we can't afford the rich and human survival too- it's one, or the other
