Oh so you're talking some Utopian Vision thing. Got it.

It is not money that grands wealth power, is the people who want it. And you need a lot of people who want it, to effectively gain impact with large amounts of wealth.

Well seeing as money buys food, shelter, clothing, and iphones; it's safe to say we've met your conditions, in the real world.

Will a few dollars worth of time and seed in garden vs a billion dollars of food, you can still only eat so much.

What Im trying to get across, is that a billion dollars is a lot of money, specially compared to a million, but in the real world it's has no power. Money is nothing. The greatest influence and change occurs with just people. And when you want to spend great amounts of money, it can not be done without willing people. EG, billions of Venezuela currency will get you nothing as people are not interested. French revolutions change the entire nation, via poor people. Man wont suck a dick for all the money in the world because his morals are more important. If you want to build a large building, you need the people to do it. If you want to destroy another nation, you need the people to do it.

And what's the fastest, easiest way to convince people to do things you want, hmm? 🤔

That was not the issue. The issue is the value of billions over millions. But to answer the question, you give them what they want. And money is not what every one wants. And if you give someone a billion to do something over a million, you will not get much of a difference in performance. The limiting factor is again, people. And people who want to do what you want. As said before, you can wave a billion dollars in my face to suck your dick, I aint gonna do it. Your billions have no power.
