40. They like air breathers

"I am 100% certain that to a Musk, a Bezos or a Zuckerberg I am just a useless air breather."

Air breathers are their lifeblood, air breathers pay for Amazon subscriptions, they use Facebook to connect with their "friends," and they drive Teslas.

They don't want to kill you, they want to milk you.
