    The billionaire class aren’t “ghouls” leaching off society. They are leeches leaching off society. The term parasites will also suffice.

    Also… the super-creep genre is shit.

      Unlike billionaires, some parasites are beneficial to humanity (there’s a species of wasp that lays its eggs in plant-destroying caterpillars, and leeches can be used as bait while fishing).
