Someone who's good with art, help me pitch rich people on a massive underwater city that's only for rich people and nothing bad will ever happen to rich people there

Build it as the Ayn Rand dream for good measure

I really gotta play that game eventually, tho they say it's not cool enough cuz it's a libertarian critique of libertarianism

It deconstructs Ayn Rand by playing it straight. Don't expect Disco Elysium analysis, but it does have good writing. Excellent twist for its time, and I won't spoil it just in case.
