News Item: Mark Zuckerberg builds a 6-foot wall on his 1150-acre Hawaiian estate, much to the annoyance of neighbors.
It seems that ultra-billionaire Mark Zuckerberg wants two things. Privacy and space. Lots of space. His Hawaiian digs for example, now consist of 1150 acres, protected in part by a tall ugly wall.
Funny thing though. Mr. Zuckerberg doesn’t want to accord the same right to other Americans. No, the great unwashed must be made to bear the brunt of the mass importation of cheap labour via illegal migrants, guest workers, blanket amnesties and increased quotas for legal immigration. In short, he effectively wants to double the population growth rate of the United States. By mid-century Zuckerberg’s America will have over 450,000,000 souls, or shall we say, human sardines stuffed into one can.
In other words, he wants to lower the population density behind his wall, but increase it for those who must live outside of it. In fact, he doesn’t want other Americans to have a wall of any kind. He wants other Americans to live with cut-throat labour competition, higher housing costs, over burdened social services, more congestion, more pollution, more crime and a crumbling infrastructure that cannot keep pace with the demands of immigration-driven population growth. In so many words, Zuckerberg’s message is this: Let them eat cake.
This is all to say that Mark Zuckerberg is a damned hypocrite. Here he is waxing eloquent about the need to build bridges, not walls ...
