How likely is it that most billionaires are psychopaths and that's why things are the way that they are?

@j Either psychopaths or autists. I doubt that you'll find many billionaires that don't fit one of these. Mark Zuckerberg is likely both.

@alyx Most CEOs, major corporate executives, and ultra-wealthy are clinical sociopaths. And, this is often spun as a "good thing" with the excuse that one "needs" sociopaths in positions like this because they have to be able to make "tough decisions". @j

@alyx @j Billionaires are mentally in the same way that Body builders, professional athletes, and pick up artists are mentally ill. They have become monomaniacally obsessed with a specific goal and they will sacrifice all other aspects of life to attain that goal. They'll abandon their health, family, and morality in pursuit of "make number bigger" because it's the only thing they think gives their life meaning.
