28. They create high paying jobs for friends & familiy.

On the off chance they do create a job for the "commoners" it's most likely going to involve low pay, low benefits and be horribly destructive to the environment & climate.
That ain't job creation. That is habitat destruction with the wealthy taking all the rewards and the poor suffering all the after-effects.
The old days of job creation are quickly ending. The new jobs will involve farming, rebuilding waterways, replanting trees, installing solar power & greenhouses. The time for us to keep adding to the pain that future generations & animals will endure has to end, now. The time for us to be our Brothers Keeper, to be good stewards to the plants & animals has to start.
We can save some of it. I really believe it. It may well be a lost cause but as has been said many times, they are the only ones worth fighting for.
