    They aren’t sitting in their bunkers because they don’t need to. People have still too much to lose to try making the concept of consequences real for billionaires.

      Yes, but the point is that scaring them now with this idea of the future may help prevent it.

      They think their bunkers will be safe in X years and lots of people are going to ensure they aren’t

    They’ll have to have ventilation, so dump as much liquid nitrogen down there as possible. It will convert to gas at a rate of 696:1, and fill every nook & cranny of the bunker with pure nitrogen gas, which will solve the problem within a few breaths.

    THEN encase it in concrete, and leave it for some archeologist to discover in 10,000 years.

        Why? All the money is 1’s and 0’s on the computer. I’d not like they physically have a billion dollars in printed stocks.

          No, the bunkers are for a post-digital world. Digital money will have evaporated. Those bunkers will be filled with gold bars, precious gems, and art. Also useful barter items.

          Also weapons and ammo.

    Here is the thing about bunkers. Unless they have installed some way to power that bunker and provide water and food that cannot be destroyed, it’s a self-made trap. They can be ignored and the denizens will die in the cold damp darkness of starvation and dehydration. With a probable side dose of madeness.

    If they are hiding in their bunkers because of an ecological disaster then we’re all screwed. If they are hiding in their bunkers from us…then we’ll get 'em eventually.

    It’s more likely to be the mercenaries that already killed said billionaire and now control the compound.

    Be careful might want to killdozer-up the cement truck first.

    Don’t you think these weirdos have thought about that and have some crazy CO2-removal system so they’d survive a long time without air intake?

    Every bunker has at least one secondary “escape” hatch" in case the primary entrance is obstructed - generally it’s buried and isolated/insulated from the thermal mass of the rest of the bunker so it doesn’t show up on IR, but a metal detector will work wonders for finding them.

    Why is everyone assuming the truck is actually filled with concrete? Mythbusters famously demonstrated they can be used to carry, and mix, a wide variety of products.

    Like fertiliser contaminated with diesel, for example.
