So a sociopath with little empathy is allowed to have insane power because we don't want to negate what you think is a natural human desire for more? That same desire which we are arguing is sociopathic? You are empathizing with billionaires and defending disparity because we don't want to dampen the human spirit which you feel is centered around desire? I'm not baiting you anymore just curious how you end up with such a different view, unless you are a billionaire... You crafted this odd story of ownership to illustrate a point and its only providing me evidence of the sickness that started this conversation...
A natural desire to manage what they created or regain that control if they (willingly) gave it up and regret the decision.
The idea that people have that they can just rip away control of a company from someone because it made them rich is frankly, disgusting.
There's really only two ways to become a billionaire, and that's investing, or owning a company, so it's not really a odd story to come up with.
Glad I'm not you... all I can say... see ya around
