What the heck do you think a dictator is? A billionaire running a country.
I think there is a difference in mentality between people who chase power and people who chase money. Bull Gates certainly chases money, but he's not trying to take over a country somewhere.
That may be so, but nonetheless they overlap often enough.
Are you saying he is trying to take over the country by buying all the land? Seems like he's just using land as an investment.
Owning land is not the same as governing land.
I'm more worried about billionaires who have literal armies like Erik Prince.
