They may seem pointless to those outside of the organization. As long as someone is willing to pay them then someone considers they have value.

No one is “starving to death” but you’d have people just barely scraping by.

What do we need the mega rich for anyway? They aren’t creative and easily replaced with AI at this point.

Young Conservative groups at colleges seem to revolve around thinking of ways to get attention and “lolz”

Fucking 1920s

Polio is still out there on the fringes. Smallpox is in some labs around the world and the genome is available.
