    It’s a dick measuring competition with their buddies at that point, at the expense of the rest of us.

      Not necessarily true. More money at that level isn’t about more material possessions or even more services: it’s about more power and influence. It’s playing toward oligarchy.

        I didn’t say anything about possessions and purchasing power, the competition in that echelon is about who has more ability to bend the world around them, thus the dick measuring comment.
