Among them, I suspect some talented, hard-working people may develop a sense of low self-worth since "the system" values them so much less than some of their fellow (equal) humans, in some cases tragically leading to opioids and suicide.

Nobody needs a billionaire dollars. Nobody needs billionaires.

Somebody needs to undo the past 40 years of "trickle-down" Reaganomics and other self-serving Republican garbage.

We do not need billionaires. We would do fine without them.
I do not think anyone deserves to be that rich no matter what they do or inherit..no one needs a billion dollars. No One.
