Amongst the rich (but not affluent) families who can control destinies, they tend to congregate in communities with their own kind. With manual labor beneath the vast majority of them, housing consists of gated communities or luxury high rises that display their success and wealth by only having to take out the garbage. The affluent have butlers or gardeners for that. Using their high rises as status symbols, even though they may all look the same on the outside, the trick here is to be on the top floor so that all their equals are beneath them. This gives them satisfaction knowing that if they drop anything, there are people lower on the pecking order who will get their crumbs. As cruel and arrogant as this sounds, they are put in their place by the affluent crowd. Karma. All high-end condos or luxury apartments usually overlook water because humans descended from fish. We’re both on the same branch in the Tree of Life, and we both have vertebrae and tongues. We also have a slime layer and worms factor into our fate. We’re damn near twins. So, the affluent keep the rich in check with laws. That water out front can not be owned. So, to keep the rich humble, the affluent decided to take low income immigrants at borders and refugee camps and put them on Chinese junkets to live on the waters in front of their high-rise housing. Every morning, the rich wake up to 3 or more families living on these ghastly floating rafts, cooking goat meat tacos and fish head soup for breakfast. Their biological wastes and organic scraps go right over the gun whales, while their underwear dries on the mizzen mast. The lake or section of the still river soon mutates from the former Hidden Lake into Hidden Lake Cesspool. How does Karma come back on the affluent? It doesn’t; they own Karma. That is, unless the rich get together with the pirates and convince them to dissect the affluent with baseball bats. Then everybody moves up 1 step on the ladder.
