This really speaks to the issue of the ultra-wealthy being more interested in power over others than satiating their own needs or desires. Pathetic on their part, like a mental illness for power, manifest through the accumulation of money.

It's not really much of a surprise, human beings have been lying for power and influence over a dominion for thousands of years. The modern iteration isn't much different, aside from the modern global reach.
