    Good luck trying to convince a majority of that, but also they can reproduce faster than you can kill them. There will always be opportunists and assholes as long as mankind exists, better to stop them from forming than strike them down as they come about.

        By assuming that person will be human and have human needs and wants based on the instincts crafted from hundreds of millions of years of evolution, with about 8 billion living examples to work with and the tangible results of about 110 billion past examples.

        All humans are assholes, they all have selfish desires, the key here is to plan around that so that the most beneficial thing for the individual is what is beneficial for all of us, and that is already almost always the case even though it’s not always obvious to them.

        In the last US Election they elected a Billionaire president and immediately started stripping away regulations. You’re not just dealing with Billionaires, you’re dealing with all of the people who support them.

        Don’t even get me started on the less free nations run by autocrat billionaires like Saudi Royalty, Xi Jinping, and Putin.
