Bill Gates on Friday told his fellow billionaires that more needed to be done to combat climate change during an address at the annual Sun Valley conference in Idaho.

With many of his fellow captains of industry, entertainment and technology having flown in by private jet, Gates told them the problem was real.

The busy private jet traffic on Tuesday saw the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration bring in restrictions on air traffic control, temporarily banning other planes from the country's West Coast to as far as Michigan and Canada from departing.

We truly are in another robber baron era, only their reach and influence is even greater today.

We can’t have a true representative government, in which those elected work for each of us and know that they do, unless we stop people like Gates from having more say into what happens than any other citizen does. One person. One vote. To allow what we have now is to cede power to an oligarchy - with the rest of us being somewhat like serfs.

A well-placed MOAB would have made the world a better place. Just saying.

I copied this from Burt Preluksk's Right Opinion page.
Greg Palko shared a meme that reads: “Hell of a job, Democrats, you’ve managed to bring back the 1918 Pandemic, the 1929 Depression, the 1968 Race Riots and the 1973 Gas Lines, all at the same time.”
I hope they are enjoying themselves in Sun Valley while their constituents put up with violence and garbage on their streets back in the district.

It sure is amazing, seeing our progressive/leftist better display the proper way to “live, work, love”....

The diversity is just stunning.

If there really was a climate crisis, they would have flown commercial and would live in modest homes.....not buying it.

Wonder if they coordinate their armed security details when they congregate in one place.

“Our betters”? Maybe they think they are but I don’t have any friends that are Registered Sex Offenders, like Jeffrey Epstein whom the weirdo Gates visited repeatedly after he was released from prison for molesting young girls and shopping them to the “connected”. Who would associate with such trash?

Doesn’t matter if it’s called Socialism, Communism or Billionaireism, it always boils down to the elites eating high on the hog and the proletariat eating out of their garbage cans.

They purchased offsets.

And personally directed their groundskeepers to plant a commemorative tree.

Gaea te absolvo.

There should have been blockades entering the area where they had to enter in a electric vehicle, not a cross bred, and presented documentation proving they had used no other form of transportation than the electric vehicle to make the trip from their point of origin.

As I mentioned previously, sounds like an opportunity to round up this gaggle and charge them with crimes against humanity. 💸💸💸💸😕
