WELCOME BACK TO NICKY AT NIGHT!!!This week wanted to do a more deep dive on this trend I have seen in politics lately. This idea of the "relatable billionaire", and these tech CEOs somehow becoming this symbol of aspiration.It's so fascinating to me how public displays of wealth have become such a symbol of aspiration-- yet one of the biggest reasons why everything is SO expensive right now is exactly because of the actions of these same people who are being idolized.It is truly this paradox that makes no sense to me, and I cannot comprehend why someone would ever think the top priority of a billionaire is to lower your grocery prices...JOIN THE DISCORD:Follow me on IG:#videoessay #democrats #politics
