Where Rupert Murdoch? I'd put him as even worse than Bezos.

Musk, Bezos and Zuck are just the most visible ones but by no means the worst.

It depends on where you are, of course. Here in the UK, the Murdoch press is a massive influence.

No doubt. Some hypothesize that Vladimir Putin is the actual richest man in the world. Possibly even a trillionaire. He's definitely the worst of the radical rich.

Indeed. The Saudi royal family also ranks pretty high up there.

Alice Walton has more DUI's than one can count. Killed someone, another time drove into a ravine. Net worth: 71 billion.

She could pay a new person $50,000 for an 8 hour shift of driving her around for every living moment, and it wouldnt dent her money. Could have a "house for a ride" program where if you give her a ride she buys you a house. 10 rides that day? She'd still make money.

And the Sacklers and the Kochs and the Murdochs and let's not forget Musk's handlers, Thiel and Ellison.

Koch family deserves to be on here too.
