If they were hoarding cats, or rusty cars, or old refrigerators, or piles of scrap metal, etc., the authorities would intervene, and get them help for their mental illness.

This is a common misconception.

“The authorities” (USA viewpoint) are really extremely unlikely to intervene in any way at all with hoarding, and even more extremely unlikely to provide any kind of useful mental health intervention.

If the hoarding is causing a public safety hazard then the authorities may eventually start fining the hoarder until they do whatever is minimally required to clear the hazard.

Much much more likely, if the hoarder is renting, the landlord may evict them which is one of the many paths to homelessness.

But by far the most common outcome is that the authorities do nothing whatsoever to stop or help with harmful hoarding behavior.

In this way, crazy aunt Florence and Elon Musk are similar.

From the article:

we do not claim it is true

That’s some hard-hitting journalism right there

Are there doing damage to all these refineries and stopping fuel production? Or are these stats including all sites where a drone reached it at all?

unless they force people to stop and wait to get their money

Do you really feel like inconveniencing us is unlikely?

A few years ago before I moved away, PNC bank had a few branches with new ATMs that made me tap through ads for loans and special checking accounts.
