The rich don’t do any work and don’t buy what they sell
They can easily be a planet away and still extract wealth from the people left behind. If pollution causes people to die quicker it doesn’t matter to them
If pollution causes scarcity then they become richer
If pollution causes extinction then they are dead so it doesn’t matter
Also, they need customers.
Once the economy collapses, they just hoard slaves and servants and pay them with scraps.
Mmm, delicious, moist scraps…
