Bezos and Musk are so rich because they own many shares of their companies. Those shares are valuable because of the labor of hundreds of thousands of people. It is these people the hundreds of billions of equity should flow to. Bezos and Musk aren't much different to feudal lords taking from their serfs.

Their “serfs” are free to go though, that’s a big difference. Also feudal lords own land which is in limited supply, but Bezos and Musk own equity which is in unlimited supply, that’s a second big difference.

Sorry, but I see it as just plain old “if a woman is beautiful, anyone who enjoys her beauty is entitled to sharing bed with her”. “If a business is successful, anyone who enjoys receiving salary from it, is also entitled to its shares”. No and no?

People give and receive what they had mutually agreed to give and receive without coercion.

Also I hope that you’re personally not a hypocrite, you will start a business and split shares among employees, and show the world how it is actually better for you, the business, and, most importantly, your employees.

"If a business is successful, anyone who enjoys receiving salary from it, is also entitled to its shares"

Actually I think this IS a possible solution. For every dollar of wages an employee gets they should also receive a dollar of equity.

"People give and receive what they had mutually agreed to give and receive without coercion."

We see how rabidly Starbucks, Amazon, and Musk fight Unions. They do this because they know exactly how much harder it is to exploit workers who are unionized.

"you will start a business and split shares among employees,"

I would feel like a complete piece of shit if I got as rich as Musk or Bezos off the backs of my employees like they did.
