There's no good reason to think about what I would do if I was rich enough to
|
||||
own a magazine, and a number of better and much more urgent reasons not to
|
||||
think about it at all. The most obvious of those is that while I am not rich, I
|
||||
already sort of own [45]something that is sort of like that, and so there is
|
||||
usually something I could be doing there that's more useful than musing over
|
||||
what I might might do as, say, the gentleman publisher of a small literary
|
||||
journal called The Peppermill Review or Frontispiece or a political quarterly
|
||||
named Publius or I guess Frontispiece could also work here. But there's another
|
||||
reason not to bother with this particular daydream, which is that being that
|
||||
rich would seem to render the idea moot.
|
||||
|
||||
I am just going by what I see, here. The people in our culture with enough
|
||||
money to do whatever they want—the sort of objectively immoral benefactor-grade
|
||||
wealth that is currently warping and cheapening our public life through its own
|
||||
obscene scope and its owners' relentless craven self-interest—seem
|
||||
categorically opposed to doing anything interesting with it. Or, anyway, they
|
||||
seem opposed to doing anything more interesting than watching that money grow
|
||||
and maybe remarking upon how that experience of all that having and watching
|
||||
has been for them. It may be that all that dull abundance has flooded their
|
||||
circuits, leaving them incapable not just of wanting anything but more of what
|
||||
they already have, but unable even to imagine anything else that a person might
|
||||
want. They also just might not care about anything but each other, and their
|
||||
stuff. Because these people and what they want are so determinedly
|
||||
uninteresting, it's not a very interesting question; because what they do is so
|
||||
strange, it's natural to wonder if maybe all that money, and all the time spent
|
||||
thinking about it, hasn't been good for them.
|
||||
|
||||
In a non-material sense, I mean. Materially they are doing great, and the
|
||||
liberating civic atrophy that was the goal of their rich-guy forebears—the
|
||||
seething gray men gone by who [46]spent their money creating and promoting the
|
||||
incoherent, prissy-vicious, intermittently libertarian politics to which this
|
||||
class mostly subscribes—has softened not just the state but the broader culture
|
||||
into something that can only glancingly inconvenience them. The "not good for
|
||||
them" part is the way in which all that ease and all those eager supplicants,
|
||||
the warm bath of clubby gossip and passive income in which they've all gone
|
||||
pruney, has shrunken and shortened them. They prosper and prosper and [47]speak
|
||||
bitterly about how unappreciated they are, but they seem somehow incomplete.
|
||||
It's as if the money had crowded something important out.
|
||||
|
||||
They keep busy. Generally they pass their money around the rich person
|
||||
community in various ways—investments, patronage, lawsuits, alimony, [48]weird
|
||||
political stunts—and sometimes spend some on lobbying designed to guarantee
|
||||
that nothing they or their businesses do will ever become more inconvenient or
|
||||
subject to public scrutiny. Even when and where this bustling uselessness
|
||||
produces something the broader public could notionally use—a big building with
|
||||
a rich person's name on it in big letters, say—there isn't really much mystery
|
||||
to why. The answer is already right there to read, in big letters.
|
||||
|
||||
This super-class's singular drive to preserve and affirm a status quo that
|
||||
doesn't serve anyone but themselves speaks for itself, and it is fucking always
|
||||
talking. You can look at a wary and confused culture overrun by financialized
|
||||
rot and recursive grievance and raw sadism, and at a politics mostly concerned
|
||||
with managing that miserable status quo while maintaining the maximum in
|
||||
Punishment Capacity. And then you can look at the objectively mediocre and
|
||||
preposterously wealthy people so anxiously and imperiously presiding over it,
|
||||
and venture a pretty confident guess about the effects of letting the broader
|
||||
culture not just soak in all that stagnant wealth but move mostly according to
|
||||
whatever currents periodically stir its surface.
|
||||
|
||||
This is where inequality and the politics it's bought becomes not an
|
||||
abstraction but a fact of daily life. That this class does not really make or
|
||||
do anything—or make anything but a nine percent annual return every year, or do
|
||||
anything but congratulate itself and groan about how unfair its critics are—is
|
||||
everyone's problem, because those idle demands made on high arrive downhill,
|
||||
onto the rest of us, as an avalanche. Or, less metaphorically, as layoffs, and
|
||||
austerity, and ever more optimized and anti-human efficiencies, and a
|
||||
claustrophobic and airless culture being squashed flat by their algorithms and
|
||||
incuriosity. If this class had less power, the obvious limits of their
|
||||
imagination would mostly be their problem; because they have so much, those
|
||||
limits wind up imposed on everyone else. We are all [49]trapped in there, with
|
||||
them.
|
||||
|
||||
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
||||
|
||||
Because these extremely rich people mostly just talk to each other, and because
|
||||
they mostly have the sort of bad ideas that a person might have if the only
|
||||
people they knew also hung out in Marc Andreessen's Twitter mentions all day
|
||||
saying "absolutely" and "indeed," their big ideas lately tend to register
|
||||
mostly as abstractions when they register at all. "The average person’s life is
|
||||
changed when the things they do each day are both faster and better," [50]Ed
|
||||
Zitron wrote in his newsletter, "and it’s hard to point to products that have
|
||||
meaningfully done that in quite some time." The money still moves, but it's
|
||||
hard to say to what end. Sometimes one of these entities invests in another
|
||||
one, or consumes it. Sometimes a half-dozen nearly identical companies show up
|
||||
promising to have a man on a bike bring you a pint of ice cream at any time of
|
||||
day, in 10 minutes, or eight, or six, and then a few months later they are all
|
||||
gone.
|
||||
|
||||
It is important, if also pretty funny, to remember that the very rich people
|
||||
doing all this stuff believe that they are shaping the future by doing it.
|
||||
Normal people just, like, work and consume and live wherever they live and do
|
||||
whatever it is they do, while at the same time 300 men in fleece vests push
|
||||
history forward in world-historically wack Slack channels or by writing things
|
||||
like "Web 4?" on dry-erase boards. When the people ruling this moment dare to
|
||||
imagine what the next might be like, the result is almost poignant in its
|
||||
childish shabbiness—a colony on another planet for them to rule; a new type of
|
||||
money [51]for them to have; a wholly digital world in which they could charge
|
||||
rent and [52]convene meetings or, when the rest of humanity [53]decided that
|
||||
didn't sound cool at all, a future in which a predictive text generator they
|
||||
have deemed artificial intelligence, an algorithm somehow trained to [54]get
|
||||
upset and [55]botch easy logic questions, could efficiently obviate all those
|
||||
messy and inefficient and disagreeable other people. Of course there's [56]no
|
||||
real art in that future, although the rich men plowing millions of dollars into
|
||||
[57]grimly de-aging their bodies so they can be rich forever suggests that
|
||||
David Cronenberg's work might at least survive in spirit.
|
||||
|
||||
It is axiomatic that these people get bored extremely easily. They are panicky
|
||||
and fad-prone and gossipy and move as a herd; the billionaires who see
|
||||
themselves as anointed change-makers and shapers of the world to come get upset
|
||||
about the same fake-o bullshit that keeps Fox News casualties indoors on sunny
|
||||
days. The billionaire venture capitalist with a bugout compound in New Zealand
|
||||
and a portfolio of future-shaping disruptions grouses in private about Critical
|
||||
Race Theory In The Schools and shoplifters at Walgreens in cities in which they
|
||||
do not live, but they naturally prefer more richly marbled fare. Their [58]pet
|
||||
intellectuals tell them that they are being robbed by the masses and deserve to
|
||||
live as kings; their [59]chosen political candidates say it, too. Some of them
|
||||
have lately become concerned that the predictive text generator they like is
|
||||
[60]politically biased against them. These people talk (and talk, and talk)
|
||||
online in more or less the same register as the average Cobra Commander
|
||||
monologue. If there is anything useful about their discourse, it has less to do
|
||||
with the substance than the shape of it; both are [61]absolutely off-the-rack
|
||||
conservative rich person lorem ipsum stuff, and profoundly grating and dull as
|
||||
such, but the familiarity is instructive.
|
||||
|
||||
Recently, an influential corner of this cohort [62]caused a bank run by
|
||||
abruptly pulling their money from the one bank at which, implausibly, all of
|
||||
them seemed to do all their business. When the bank collapsed, they took turns
|
||||
posting that its collapse was an extinction-level threat to the nation's
|
||||
economy, and a national security issue, and perhaps also a threat to the planet
|
||||
itself. The bank was [63]a self-dealing mess, as it turns out, but so was the
|
||||
community it served. All of them plainly regarded [64]both the best practices
|
||||
and the literal laws that govern this kind of thing as nothing they'd have to
|
||||
worry about. Some of this is hubris, and some of this is just assessing how the
|
||||
reality they've purchased actually works. They're awful, but they're not really
|
||||
wrong. Of course they were bailed out.
|
||||
|
||||
The story of that bank run is already in its woozy afterlife. Some other wobbly
|
||||
and variously shitty banks were absorbed into bigger banks; those tended to be
|
||||
both highly exposed to the things this super-class likes (cryptocurrency, most
|
||||
notably) and dedicated to servicing their weird whims. Fox News started blaming
|
||||
those failures on woke-ism and then just moved on to other outrages; there were
|
||||
briefly [65]vague intimations of potential legislative fixes to the stupid laws
|
||||
that made the collapse possible; there are lingering questions, none of which
|
||||
seem likely to be answered anytime soon, about why, as one Silicon Valley
|
||||
investor put it, all these extremely powerful and influential venture
|
||||
capitalists were "letting all of their companies put all of their money in
|
||||
one—I mean, best case—[66]C-minus financial institution."
|
||||
|
||||
There has been kind of a lot of this lately: crises that don't quite resolve
|
||||
into crises, things that are clearly bad but somehow not in ways that
|
||||
necessarily lead to any learning or change. So much depends upon things staying
|
||||
more or less the same, and things generally do. Again, this reality was
|
||||
purchased, at a surprisingly low price and over the course of just a few
|
||||
generations, by the class of heedless and wildly distractible dunces that it
|
||||
keeps on absolving. It would be much easier to appreciate the low satire of all
|
||||
it if everyone wasn't living not so much with as within the consequences of it.
|
||||
|
||||
It's not just about so few people having so much of everything, although that
|
||||
is plenty odious and offensive on its merits. The problem, as it is experienced
|
||||
moment by moment and day by day, is how little they have done with it, and how
|
||||
little what they have done with it has done for everyone else. That inequality,
|
||||
when compounded over time and amplified by the cretinous and absolutely joyless
|
||||
mediocrity of the people in whose accounts that compounding gets done, winds up
|
||||
not just freezing the world in place, but shrinking it to the size of their own
|
||||
incuriosity. Sometimes this is more obvious than others—a billionaire buys and
|
||||
closes [67]a publication about books; a Koch scion with literary ambitions gets
|
||||
bored with her literary journal, scuppers it, and is treated to a strange
|
||||
feature in the New York Times about [68]her pivot to wellness. Mostly it
|
||||
reveals itself in the negative; squint and you can almost see the possibilities
|
||||
that might have happened, but didn't, trailing in the wake of the useless
|
||||
things they launch as those innovations describe their familiar course up and
|
||||
then down.
|
||||
|
||||
There's more than one obvious problem with this, but keeping all this wealth in
|
||||
the same small and tremendously prideful network—in the same bank!—is grounded
|
||||
in the idea that only the people who have all this power and influence would
|
||||
know what to do with it. That belief has persisted within that community, and
|
||||
to a distressing degree outside of it as well, despite what is by now copious
|
||||
evidence that all this new elite really wants to do with that money is gamble
|
||||
it amongst themselves and find new methods and venues to charge everyone else
|
||||
rent. If these billionaires are correct in their perception that the general
|
||||
public has increasingly had it with them, it's worth noting that some of that
|
||||
is just a natural response to being insulted. How else, I wonder, did they
|
||||
expect people to react upon being told that their betters saw them as so much
|
||||
surplus, and their aspirations—the finer ones, and also just the basic
|
||||
dignities that people naturally believe they deserve—as impracticalities, or
|
||||
debris on the road ahead.
|
||||
|
||||
If this class seems about spent in its creative capacity, that is by no means
|
||||
true of the rest of humanity. It is easy to see the conflict this creates: a
|
||||
small group sitting atop a vast supply of resources, doing nothing much, and a
|
||||
larger, striving group thinks about what better use that all might be put
|
||||
toward. "Art means nothing if it simply decorates the dinner table of the power
|
||||
which holds it hostage," the critic Adrienne Rich wrote, and [69]the
|
||||
screenwriter Charlie Kaufman quoted at the Writers Guild of America Awards. He
|
||||
was receiving a lifetime achievement award from the organization, but also
|
||||
speaking as a member of a union [70]getting ready to strike.
