All the wealth is being concentrated in the hands of too few people. I'm not going to buy a $120 game when my salary is down, or I'm just laid off.

Sweeney's a billionaire. He could be pushing for labor to have a bigger slice of the pie. But he won't, because he's a soulless husk.

I don't have the personal budget to buy a lot of games. Pay me more and I'll spend more. Otherwise, fuck all the way off

I buy music (mostly from Bandcamp). Now I have a big library and no subscription fee.

He's going to keep all his wealth and maybe stroll into a high paying "consulting" gig. It's unfair. it's unjust. People who are bad at their jobs and making the world worse do not deserve immense wealth and comfort.
