A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

It's like every group of people in the world regardless if they are American or not ..... this only applies to the billionaires who are only a very small minority of the global population.
Just look around you and anyone you have remotely interacted with in your life .... are they a billionaire? If yes then they are affected ... if not, nothing changes.
All this talk about billionaires would only affect a few hundred people across the eight billion people on the planet.
Either we shift our thinking to getting rid of billionaires ... or we continue to stand aside and let them rule the world to our collective detriment.
