   I feel like billionaires are letting the world down.

   So much wealth, so much power, but as far as I can tell there won't be a flock of supersonic jets with transparent upper fuselages following the eclipse.

   I mean, there are ~2500 billionaires in the world, and *none* of them are going to experience five full hours of totality.

   Really, it's a complete failure of imagination.

     @LALegault @blaine @xdydx Billionaires are tumours. Capitalism is cancer.

     Billionaires are a failure to keep society equitable.
