Ah, a billionaire finally doing the most useful thing they'll have ever done; feeding worms and creating compost.

I don't disagree, but unfortunately without the people seizing his assets, his death just created one or more other billionaires in his place, depending on who inherits.

Unfortunately human beings are usually embalmed so his compost would be contaminated with formaldehyde. This guy specifically is probably also going into some kind of vault, so the wormies will go hungry.

I have a big problem with the funeral industry πŸ™ƒ I told my kids to bury me on property, claim my skull to keep on the mantle, and keep cashing my social security as long as possible.

Anyway even in death billionaires are worthless and toxic, the world would be better off without them.
