The first intellectual attractive post so far . Thanks for that .

Why should the owner become disinterested in the future of the company he founded ? He still can manage it , only his personal fortune will not be allowed to grow beyond the 1 billion limit . No negative outcome for his employees ...

No way I want to " dictate " anything to anybody . I am not a dictator . Yes , I am privileged , compared to many others , I know that , So what ? I am not responsible for other people , I help when I see an emergency , I manage to keep my heart open . But my priority is to help reduce the suffering of animals here on the island . We rescued 32 dogs by now from a certain , painful death and gave them a new life , to take good care for all of them , I have to spend about 80000 baht a month . I do not care for the money , they give something back to me that is worth more than this . Loyalty , Honesty , Love . I have a house that is off-grid , powered exclusively by solar . ( I have another house , a conventional one as well ) , but I prefer the small off grid one because it's location near the mangroves and a beautiful lake . I think , I will sell the big luxury one , because I do not really need it anymore ... What do you do ...?

Well you asked personal questions , so I will give you the answer ... I set myself the goal of having enough to retire comfortably in Thailand . I reached that goal , but now it is ENOUGH ! I do not need more . I have what I need and wanted . I realized that I want to live a happy life , but the secret for this is , is , IMO , to limit what I own to a point that I do not own more than I can personally take care for . I am getting older now , and I think that I should further reduce what I own , because the time I need to spend to take care for that becomes more precious every day . I do not own a billion , I would not want that , what I have gives me financial security enough until I face " the final curtain " . Now , I only do what I enjoy , I have nobody telling me what to do except some blockheads on AN ... I am a happy man , are you ...?

You misunderstood ... once the 1 billion personal wealth reached , the company does not need to cease to exist , It could go on just as before , only the profits that are made should be diverted to sustainable goals , like setting up solar farms that produce cheap electricity for everybody ... The owners or founders of these companies can get other privileges ...

I wonder what money they use to buy their private airplanes , Yachts , islands ...?

Ok , let's say the limit to maximal personal wealth would be 1 billion ( 1000 millions ) ... Would that take away the motivations ?

... but you forgot most of it when becoming older ...? The clue is in logical , binary thinking ... and if you want to find solutions , you need to ask the right questions .

AFAIK , Putin does not deliver russian gas any more to Germany ....

Another one who has no idea ...

What solutions ? Explain a little , please ...

A new , more lethal form of Coronavirus in the making already ....? Germans produce too expensive , nobody buys a german solar panel that is 3 times more expensive than a comparable chinese one .

Difficult to answer for somebody who seems confused himself ... If you know what is wrong , why don't you tell ...? No positive participation from you , only arrogance ... My thinking is very clear , I found and analyzed the problems in our present society and I know how to solve them ( theoretically ) . But , to solve communal problems , it needs the participation of the majority of people , and that looks like an unsolvable problem in the moment ... There are simply to many who do not realize what is wrong and how to change that ... you are one of them .

My childhood ? A horror I do not want to remember ... Grew up in a * hithole industrial suburb of a middle class town . Run away from parents as often as I could ... they got me caught by police and returned to my non loving home . When I became 18 , they could not force me to go back anymore , I left for good ... but , now , I am happy , forgot all the * hit that happened before ... * uck them all ...

Time for a system change ...? We all see where unrestricted capitalism as the dominant economic form , has lead the world to ... Capitalism gives the individual the possibility to become rich , much richer than needed ... but it creates greed for more and more , and that leads to environmental destruction . To repair this , money is needed , and sometimes money is not enough when the destruction became irreversible already . Does the world really need individuals like Elon Musk , who has 400 Billion dollars now ? ( 400 thousand millions ) Would it not be better to set a limit on how much somebody can own ? Give the billionaires some privileges , ok , but tax away everything that is over a certain limit . That money could be used for repairing the damage done to the ecosystems ... To have a good life , nobody needs to be so rich , that it would be impossible to spend all that money anyway ... there would be better use for it . Communism is no solution either ... a few high ranked leaders become rich and important , while the normal population is not given a real chance to get what they dream of ... personal possibilities to become something or somebody they want are restricted by the system . Political system should change as well ... We see with Trump how much power the , once elected , american president gets . All that power to just one person ? that is risky at best . Trump sets up his team of millionaires to govern the people who are indoctrinated that unrestricted capitalism is the best ... it is not . Anyway , the idea of Nationalities , ethnic differences etc , is all outdated at a time where the survival of a Species is endangered . This planet needs birth control for it's dominant species , far too many people already . It needs an immediate reduction of ( plastic ) pollution and all other forms of man made pollution , immediately . We are drowning in plastic waste , microplastics have even been found in human brains ... it needs to be stopped , but the producers produce even more ... they would profit less ... Sad . There are alternative lifestyles that are sufficient to make people have a happy life without polluting the environment . It starts with producing the energy one needs by sustainable sources like solar etc ... enough , everybody knows anyway ...

I want Prajut back . He was better than Thaksin .

That is the best way to deal with problems , especially if women involved . They love it .

The question is : Why do they let him , a convicted criminal , do all this that he is normally not allowed to do ...? The answer is : because they are all corrupt and fear his " influence " . He should be in prison , he made Thailand look like a joke and discredited it internationally . Thailand has a King already , is there a place for a second one ...?

I am sure that most people , especially the Iranian women , would be happy if the crazy Mullahs disappear forever ... There should be another way to achieve that than another war ... Iran needs another revolution , that enables a system change . Bombing everything is not a lasting solution , the iranian people should get rid of the Mullahs by themselves ... Discontent is everywhere in Iran , may be foreign secret service could help to incite a revolution ?

Hoping for a Derailment of the train and the party ...

Clapton .

Multiverse(s) ? Why not ? yes or no , it won't have any importance or implications for us , as we do not know a lot about even " our " Universe . Everything is connected ... But really , the recent progress made in microcomputing and semi-conductors is sometimes frightening ... One day , they will find evidence that , really , we do not exist ... 55

But , but ... that is exactly what the Israeli settlers do .

You are right . Just do not wast your time on this one , he is beyond help ... .Posted November 25 Not only you suggest that Israel and their actions are above all criticism , but anyone criticizing them is an enemy of humanity ...? There is something seriously wrong with you ...

By the way ... Israel has the right to defend itself when attacked . Of course . But when has Israel been attacked ? The Hamas terrorists who attacked the festival goers and the kibbuzim wanted to do their hateful acts to hurt and kill some Israelis , because they hate all Israelis . That was never meant to be an attack on the state of Israel itself . Israel " defended " itself by committing a genocide ... you can turn it many times , but it is still that . So , Israels ' right to defend itself ' did not , never , imply the use of lethal force on a whole population . As I said before , Israels goal is territorial expansion , and all means are considered good enough to reach that goal . Excuses and justifications can always be found ( as usual ) , later .
