Really stinking rich people (or really powerful people) operate outside of politics or the consensus of the people. After all to them the rest of the people are irrelevant. These few follow their own morality. So people like Gates or Zuck do what they do and Putin, KimJong-un, Trump do what they do. When the common people try to assess the performance of these few we have to make sure we are using words in the same way (just like Bill C not thinking his interaction with Monica was sex). Collusion to some might only be sitting at a war table planning specific strategy, to others it is the exchange of information, or opening communication lines or appearing to trust which gives others reason to act.

There are also those who believe ‘since I say it, it is true’. These people exist in all segments of humanity. For these people you have to frame questions in a different way.
