There's no moral ambiguity here. Billionaires should not exist. We got rid of absolute monarchy for a reason, but oligarchs like Gates, Musk, Thiel, Zuckerberg, Koch, Bezos, etc are the closest thing we have today to absolute monarchs. Nobody elected them, they are accountable to nobody, and they wield entirely too much power over the rest of us.
Every billionaire is both a policy failure and a market failure. Neither wealth nor political power should be permitted to accrete into the hands of a few individuals.
