No one has a right to be wealthy. Mark Zuckerberg and all of these other people are so narcissistic that not only do they believe they are entitled to their wealth, but they also have an insane urge to take even more from people while providing even less. The quality of information and interaction on Meta’s web sites is lower than ever, and their response is to machine-produce an increasing quantity of even lower quality sludge rather than shut down the company and disappear.

What we need is a mechanism to terminate these entities, in the same way that chemotherapy eliminates fast-dividing cancer cells that have lost their ability to self-terminate.

I am sorry your response got downlvoted. I would like to understand why you believe no one has a right to be wealthy.

Also, I would like to understand what your metrics are. If you have the ability to post on this site, I will assume your income is at least an order of magnitude, possibly two, higher than someone in Chad or South Sudan. Should you lower your living standards to match them and if so, what would you do with the remainder of your income? What material effect would it have on anyone for you to do this?

These are serious questions and I’m not trying to make fun of you. I’m trying to understand you’re thinking. And to be clear about my bias, I want everyone to be wealthy.

I would say everyone has right to be wealthy.

I would say everyone has the right to keep what's left after paying at least as many taxes (in percent) as those who earn less.

They do have a right to the wealth they earned through their own ideas and efforts. I'm guessing you're a tankie though, so you likely disagree.
