A billion isn't really that much. Most billionaires are billionaires because they own a company that is with that much. Is the solution to take the company away from them? If so people will not try to grow billion dollar companies, and that isn't a good thing either.

What some mega-corps like Google have been able to create is amazing for sure, but who's to say that a thousand smaller companies wouldn't be better. Or maybe being a billionaire should have a term limit? Make all the money you want, but it is socialized at death.

Would society be worse off without these technically impressive giants? Maybe more competition of lesser products would be better overall.
