Because the I, me, and mine takes precedent over the you, them, and us in this hyper individualized culture.
The capital class of billionaires and trillionaires like Bezos, Elliot, Zuckerberg, trump, Musk, et all will, with the help of their bought cronies in politics, insure the greed and selfishness blazes on.
And the cult of The Orange One wil simply be replaced by another name. But the worship of capital and power will live on.
Eventually destroying any hopes of true freedom and liberation for We the People.
Maybe -FJ and his stable of sock puppets can make an argument rebuttal the above.
Sure... there is no you, them, and us without I, me, and mine. Meden agan (Nothing too much)! When you speak of billionaires, you speak of excess. But that doesn't mean that there shouldn't be wealth, or surplus luxury beyond necessity. It's how we dispose of this excess that matters. The listed names use it "productively" to accumulate MORE wealth and thereby outcompete and deprive others of using their own surplus wealth "productively". But once you have that large a surplus as a billion dollars, perhaps its' time you stop using your wealth productively, and let others have a chance to earn something less than a billion dollars.
And once you have a billion, please... no philanthro-capitalism. No Ford, Rockeffeller, or Carnegie philanthro-corporations that perpetuate dissent and resentment. If you wish to give your fortune away, give it away. A Potlatch would be nice. A huge party would be nice. A pyramid honoring your name would be nice. But let the Strulbrugge philanthropic corporation DIE.

Insightful Words.
Sentiments this nation chose to ignore. Twice.
It will choose to ignore the sentiments again.
Why?

Afterall, pretzel logic is fun to read!

ps - George Conway's comment is pure projection!
...his goal is the perpetuation of the excesses of the globalist capitalist system, and who doesn't brook Trump's destructive "interference" into it.
No, he’s saying truths.
Your opinion.
