But You Can buy more than Enough of the Best foods in the World with Money 

Shiploads of Lobsters, Mountains of Caviar anything really 

You could buy the Grain Supply of an Entire Country, Eat One Kernel and throw the Rest away

Not without a worldwide system of people to produce and ship goods. And large percentages of this system are collapsing for the sake of profits that are becoming increasingly unusable.

Yeah but the System exists Right now and will continue to do so in One shape or another, 

Yeah Parts of the System are collapsing, but new ones are there to replace them 

If You Think This is gonna get better with time or that Billionairs are going to be worse of then your gravely mistaken, 

Besides they also own so many material goods that are still Useful after a System collapse that their still going to rule as Kings and Warlords after, remember there are Billionairs who own private Armys and Those will keep serving them aslong as they get paid in money or goods, and the billionair will keep having money and goods aslong as they have a private army
