The world is heading toward an inevitable dystopia. By 2050 there will be an estimated 9.6 billion people living on this planet, and by then, most likely the number of people who have amassed more wealth than the bottom half will be like a dozen or so. Poor people will keep getting poorer and dying from diseases, lack of clean drinking water, lack of food and so on, while the super rich will keep getting even richer. Right now, the super rich are buying governments by buying politicians, but that will get even worse, and pretty soon they'll start buying sources of clean water and habitable living areas, and start selling and renting those to their VIP club friends, while the poor people are left to fend for themselves in places that are facing endless droughts and so on. The US, for example, may very well face droughts in some areas, that will last decades.
What the rich also do, of course, is straight up fund (the Saudi), as well as cause (among other countries, the US) terrorism, and radical people all over the globe, pitting them against each other for their own purposes. That'll continue, and perhaps even increase in pace.
Obviously the rich will keep selling this image, this "dream" that anyone can be rich, and so you shouldn't touch the rich, and that whatever the rich do is good for those with lesser means. It "trickles down", so to speak. All of that, obviously, is lies and propaganda.
So... Yeah. It is horrible. It will get worse. And you're absolutely right. Nothing can be done about it.
