Billionaires should not exist.

@godpod , should the state have billions of dollars?

@JonKramer @godpod the state has billions of dollars in order to spend it on services. A billionaire has no such responsibility. One can debate the extent to which a particular state spends its money wisely, how corrupt it is, and how much money it should have in the first place, but I don't see how billionaires and states are in any way equivalent.

@joat @godpod they aren't. States generate their funds by force. Billionaires generate their funds by selling products someone wants to buy. I would agree that billionaires that sell to states shouldn't exist... outlaw selling weapons and building prisons, for example... but a someone who gets rich selling things people want? I LOVE those guys. And to get rid of them, just stop buying from them.
