These billionaires aren’t going to pillage NZ.
It won’t be like last time
You might have misunderstood me.
Billionaires aren’t going to NZ to sell subscriptions or strip mine the wilderness. They’ve already done that elsewhere.
They’re going to NZ to live out the coming apocalypse in a mansion with servants.
They’re going to demolish nature preserves to build mega-mansions and juice up the police force to press gang local indigenous people.
Just like they’ve done everywhere else.
Billionaires want to exploit people and places but they don’t want to live in an exploited place with exploited people.
As in don’t shit where you eat.
Ultimately I think billionaires wanting to spend their billions in NZ is a good thing for NZ.
The Moss Landing Lithium Plant fire is right in the middle of California’s largest vegetable producing county.
That’s food going straight onto the plates of any number of Silicon Valley executives.
