Catch-22.

If he weren't a fascist, he wouldn't be a trillionaire.

    True, but I think it's the other way round. He's a fascist because he's obscenely wealthy. When you have that much power, empathy dies. It's a downward spiral of negative feedback actually, the more power, the less empathy, the greater the lust for power and the more unscrupulous you can be, and so on.
