    They don’t care about the negative impacts because it doesn’t actually affect them.

    How odd.

    Wealth has a tremendous capacity to insulate, but nothing is unlimited.

    Whose kids could be rich enough to live as safely or comfortably in a world that regresses/declines beyond various tipping points? (I also want their safety & comfort, we would all win)

      See, that is an indirect consequence, not a direct consequence. There are degrees of separation in the logic from A event to Z outcome that they attribute to other causes which they believe they can mitigate by throwing money at it.

      Or they are narcissistic and self obsessed people who literally don’t care about their kids. Their kids aren’t them, so they don’t care if they will have it worse. They will be dead before shit hits the fan.
