I’m not saying heirs are good or bad, some end up going on to make even bigger economic impact and some completely bust. Regardless, the giving pledge and other philanthropic things are changing the game for the argument against billionaires. Hard to hate someone that’s going to give 95+% of their net worth to cancer research, homelessness, etc. For some of us on HN that work in Tech, we are making great salaries on the backs of the the people that built the building we work in, or the computers we use for our job. You could say that the factory worker in China that built our PC deserves some of the wealth that we amassed via our computers/servers/etc. Follow it down the rabbit hole and you will see that everyone on this forum has benefitted from the hard work of others, and those people benefitted from the hard work of those that built their factories, homes, etc.
