    If I had the opportunity for some street justice on a billionaire I wouldnt fucking hesitate. That said, it would change jack shit. His wealth just passes to the next asshole.

      In a hypothetical world where billionaires cannot go outside a security perimeter for fear of their lives, how soon would we see people refusing the inheritance or donating massive portions?

      It would change things if it becomes systemic. If they learn to be scared of being a billionaire, maybe they’d be less likely to want to become one.

        I think they’d just hire more security. They have the money for it.

        Edit: I agree with your sentiment though
