  Well that’s a more specific sentiment than the one that was expressed by OP. If you take issue with the actions that they indulge in to accrue their wealth, then I’d be right there standing beside you. OP seemed to only criticise the wealth which is a neotenous view on the topic.

    No, they’re on point. Its deranged and signs of a mental problem collecting that much wealth. Concentrating wealth to the degree of billionaires actively harms the rest of the economy, and the world. They have so much of our single pie of resources that it is damaging to us.

      This is a moot point. Tax increases solve this issue

        Well let’s just see how those tax increases are go- oh yeah, the billionaires flexed their influence and blipped that from existence and now run a nasty social campaign against them.
