I get irritated because billionaires get all this credit for making society function, then their failures reduce them back to being mere mortals. It's similar to how Kamala Harris is "the best person for the job!" but then it's "her staff wasn't giving her good advice or were going behind her back."

Part of being a leader means you know how to deal with shitheads under your supervision, how to delegate, how to vet people, and how to avoid doing stupid shit like being seen with a guy who has photos of himself surrounded by young girls, drugs, and alcohol. The fact Gates didn't avoid Epstein in the first place just goes to show billionaires don't deserve shit and they only got there through corruption.
