They would prefer to have their private armies, but again a country just stays in their way.

If the US military splits into 10 private armies, will those armies be able to compete with China?

Why would they have to complete? If Xi pays enough why not let him have Taiwan? /s

Do you think those (I think 7 now?) visits to Russia are to discuss peace?

Those people are robbing us in broad day light. They don't care about the government.

Why would Xi have to pay?

If the US military is split up, would the billionaire's armies be able to dominate China?

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

It is not split yet though. I'm talking how the billionaires would prefer it.

They see themselves as being above the country.

If they can't implement the split then they need to control the president or Putin would use Trump against them.
