When Silicon Valley Bank went bust, Anderessen Horowitz was one of those screaming for a federal bailout for accounts way over the FDIC insurance limit. They got the bailout.[1]

There is some poetry that I am unable to capture when you juxtapose those rich assholes begging daddy government to bail them with that retarded libertarian screech from Marc Andreesen about Techno-Optimism: https://a16z.com/the-techno-optimist-manifesto/

Those people are sociopaths, and society would be better to treat them as such. At best they are just rich bufoons, at worst they have enough money to shape things according tp their dangerous views.
