George Monbiot on extreme wealth

A simultaneously awful and beautiful article by George Monbiot. In the MPG we have discussed whether there a link between the frictionless experience of top executives and their willingness to ruthlessly attack workers; about how capitalism disconnects people from the world and relationships; like the guy in his boat, completely disconnected from the awe and beauty of the natural world, like many of us are with our food consumption, it being disconnected from producers via the interface of supermarkets…and other endless examples.
