Do you really believe that the billionaires are the virtuous ones and everybody else is lazy? My theory is that they have been able to focus the wealth the country generates on themselves instead of others. If all billionaires retired tomorrow I believe the country would keep working the same way and the economy would keep growing. Do you think e-commerce would be any smaller without Bezos? No way.

I don't believe they are all virtuous, some might be. Some are seeking their passions. All are greedy in some capacity. > If all billionaires retired tomorrow I believe the country would keep working the same way and the economy would keep growing. I don't understand, we replace them with another person? Or would a government entity take over their assets they generated.
