Escape plans of the rich and famous
Douglas Rushkoff argues that Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and other tech moguls intend to separate themselves from the rest of humanity.
In the new book “Survival of the Richest: Escape Fantasies of the Tech Billionaires,” Douglas Rushkoff contends that many of the richest and most powerful people are not immune from this anxiety.

The difference, Rushkoff argues, is that they have fueled these problems and intend to deal with them by leaving the rest of us behind.
