The rich will flee to Hawaii and NZ, etc. meanwhile we suffer the consequences of their decisions with electricity and natural gas shortages, hyper-inflation and rising interest rates.

The government should bring in capital controls and seize their accounts and capital. Let them try to survive when they can't leech off the working class.

I mean if they want to stay there as the collapse happens that's their choice, I'd flee inland instead if I was them. The islands and coastal areas are risky with flooding and tropical storms.

“The government” enables this behavior. Excuse me if I don’t trust this “government” to solve any of these problems it created.

Looks like you're left having to trust the super rich to solve it then. They called from their super yacht after flying on a private jet from their 4th 10,000 ft^2 fully air conditioned summer home and said they got this and not to worry.
