I think this is the #1 thing the two of us disagree on, the permanence of the status quo. History is replete with the selectorate/worldbenders getting wiped out during upheavals - famine, disease, war, revolt, depressions - because they depend on the system functioning perfectly to keep their power. The biggest upset they can take is a recession.

How much power does Bezos have if the Yellowstone goes off? Or the global dollar gets shrekked as a reserve currency? Or some french revolution and/or ghandi type sit in (NEET?) happens? Elites like Gates and Soros depend on status quo to maintain their power and influence, they cant affect commoners if the status quo changes.
