If you’re interested in identifying the 150 people that Chamath Palihapitiya says run the world (assuming that Palihapitiya has not fallen for a conspiracy theory) – then a list of the world’s billionaires is a good place to start, as the Kochs, the only name Palihapitiya mentions, are in the top 30 richest billionaires in 2021.
Palihapitiya says: they’re all men, but they’re not politicians. They control most of the important assets and the money flows, and they are not the tech entrepreneurs.
