It's a feature of reality. That's why all this chatter about taking billionaires down a peg or two is ultimately fruitless. All you're doing is aiding someone else's power play -- who will then have the excess privilege and power that rankles the masses. But there is nothing to be done, it has always been that way, and always will. Those who think communism or any other governmental structure actually solves this problem, is deluded; it just transfers the power somewhere else. Putin is richer than Bill Gates.
Have you seen corporate crimes in the US? No way an entire c suite goes to prison. One person, maybe. Two or three tops.

They have money and status. How did Elon escape that bs when he said he’d take Tesla private with “funding secured”? If you or I committed such blatant market manipulation, we’d have serious consequences. It’s different for the mega wealthy (which is the primary problem).
