    So if billionaires put out a statement that they will never stop private flights, and governments announce that they won’t legislate on it, what’s your plan? Destroy the planet out of spite?

      Well first off I would suggest that they go in a submarine. Preference for one that doesn’t have all those pesky regulations in the design.

      After that just put a 20,000% fuel tax on private jets. I fly commercial, and my job matters a whole lot more, so can they. If Musk or Zuck doesn’t show up to work tomorrow things would run slightly better.

      We don’t need them. They need us. They are not super geniuses they are lucky.
