"Ghetto of wealth, power, and elitist liberalism"

Haha, that is a great quote, what a quirky story; Palo Alto paster slams Silicon Valley empty suits for their lip service to social justice and progressive politics while they do nothing but sit atop their hundreds of millions of dollars.

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/may/22/silicon-valley-pastor-gregory-stevens-wealth-liberals

Pastor Stevens goes on to say, “The insane wealth inequality and the ignorance toward actual social justice is absolutely terrifying.” He lambasts the tech industry and so many FANG wannabes as being motivated by endless profit, greed and the myth that their tech is somehow helping the world.

The San Fran / San Jose areas has a major homeless crisis and affordable housing crisis which forces low-income workers to commute more than an hour to dead-end jobs.

Oh Christianity... Where Art Thou? Why have you abandoned the good 'ole USA ??

... oh never mind, just pass some more conflict palm oil Cheetos, drink a Miller, and check Facebook and Amazon on my Apple phone ... can't keep the oligarchs waiting!

Thanks a lot (-: Peace

I believe that we are condemned to economic inequality, because always a group will administer, will take advantage of the common asset.

That is very likely, with all the complex and primitive problems of the human psyche.

We live in a society controlled by the rich, to them society is still one big business where if we ask for rights they’ll present us with cases.

I just read in another post a quote from Steve jobs:

Technology is nothing. What's important is that you have a faith in people, that they're basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they'll do wonderful things with them. Steve Jobs.
I don't know if his actual contributions were more toward the people or the elitist consumers, the history will judge that, but I found these words appropiate.
