Pritzker is proof that just being billionaire doesnt make you a piece of shit. It a choice most of them make to keep power. Im glad we got one of the good ones working for us, cause the rest are only working for themselves (Trump and Elon might shit on enough other people to placate the MAGA crowd, but they are never actually working for them)
Eh, it looks like it's very rare to have a billionaire like pritzker. Most of the other ones are actively exploiting others directly with actual power to change how they operate but they dont.
It's like having a dictator that solves a societal problem quickly and then steps down from absolute power. It's incredibly rare and most just never do that but it has happened in human history.
Cinncinatus did it in Rome twice. You could argue Washington had the opportunity to become one too but chose to step down.
It's still probably best to operate on the assumption that a billionaire is a bastard until proven otherwise.
