Gerrymandered. We can get some modern art out of it.

Are we talking total number of billionaires, or just bisection?

They will most likely get three direct elected, so their seats are pretty sturdy.

This is rather an unfavorable reading of their position. And to nail down them being unelectable to this position, is very reductive in an environment where we have: fascists at 20%, rather turned rightward conservatives at 30%, geriatric and corrupt "socdems" at like 15, and libbed up greens also at roughly 15%. All of these are for various reasons also unelectable largely more unelectable. Weighing a further destruction of the economy, and a further rightward shift, up against an idealistic maybe naive position on foreign politics I mean come on.

The actual read of their NATO position btw. Is closer to the the EU is already a military alliance with strength, and the US (+five eyes) is an unreliable/ imperialistic partner against which the EU should also strengthen itself. Largely they see Russia as worse(or at least equally bad) for the moment, but maybe not forever. Which is what the comment above is likely alluding to.

Pretty standard socialist FP positions for Europe I'd say. If you don't get why NATO might be bad maybe brush up on Afghanistan and Iraq.

Also their FP is not going to matter this election apart from being a check to the governments position, even if they were to somehow end up in one.

The people think about it and feel bad for those billionaires because the people think they are just temporarily inconvenienced billionaires themselves, and when their billions come in they don’t want anyone taking their billions away.

What I truly don't understand is, let's say that the billionaires completely "win" and we're all of their servants in some way. Who is going to actually protect them or serve them? Do they think they'll be sitting in that bunker and everyone around them will cook for them and protect them from the people wanting to steal what they have? The extremely more likely scenario is that people just go in and take they what they want, servant, neighbor, whatever. They won't be safe, lol. Desperate people will take you down to save their own family.

I now know why there are always these loyal servants in movies that fight with the master to the end. It's the wealthy paying for scripts to plant the seed, lol.
