Episode 6: When will the Billionaires Save Us Already?

This is a 'lite' episode which I'm tentatively calling Bite Sized Enclave where I tackle a single question that's been bugging me lately or responding to something that came up in an earlier episode. It's a little bit of train of thought, not edited down, just me and the microphone.

I wonder why we can't have wealthy eccentrics like Teddy Roosevelt and how much we need someone like him and the ultra-wealthy to save our planet.
