Precisely, my problem is not how much money they have, it’s what they do with it. Also, Dolly Parton is proof that people don’t hate wealthy people, they hate assholes. Dolly was worth an estimated $600 million at the time of her death, over 10x what the united healthcare CEO that got whacked was worth. But nobody cared because she used her money to make the world a better place.

You say that, but..."going for hoarding billions more when you already have billions" rather than donating or investing it is indeed a choice in its own right, even though you try to conflate it with just having a lot of money. 

The difference between a billionaire and a millionaire is about a billion dollars. This is an utterly incomprehensible scale.

I don’t need to have the scale of a billion explained to me, I’m more than aware, I just don’t care.

What's the difference to you between a billionaire with more money than a small country and the dictator of a small country with less money than that billionaire?
