The solution to all the billionaires taking everyone's money is not going to be solved by finding the right billionaire. Nobody with a billion dollars gives a shit about you. They aren't going to help you. They don't even have the personal human context to have any understanding of anything you need help with, and even if they can afford to have someone tell them, and have the empathy to bother, they'll still end up trying to fix in ways that don't actually help you. They don't get it. They won't get it. They can't. They're living in a totally different universe. Money doesn't measure success, it measures privilege.
