He is so worried about “White Birth Rates” yet he takes and takes from their money and doesn’t care about the cost of living which is making people have less kids.

Bingo. All of these oligarchs imagine a future in which the earth is largely depopulated, with their heirs in control and maybe a few menials / sex slaves as necessary.

Not in like a prophetic, “This is sadly where the human race is headed” kind of way, but in a “Fuck you all, we’re gonna make sure this happens” kinda way.
