In todays conditions, I think we are at the mercy of the goodwill of billionaires.
If they all got together, with a common purpose, they could plunge the world into recession, bring down govornments, do practically anything they wanted.
Because these days, you can move your money in seconds.
Maybe it's about time they paid a bit of tax.
