Cool, so this small group of people controls wealth roughly equivalent to 1/50th of what the entire USA government brings in. Still way too much.

Why? What’s the specific objection? E.g. Bezos’s “wealth” reflects his 9% ownership of Amazon multiplied by the fact that Amazon makes a lot of money. Presumably you don’t object to the idea of someone owning 9% of a company. That leaves the fact that Amazon is too big/makes too much money. If you’re making an antitrust argument just say that. I probably agree with you on that point!
