    This is another thing that needs to be addressed.

    Jay-z doesn't have a billion in the bank. He's worth that because of his assets and companies that he has a stake in.

    If you're saying no one should be a billionaire, then you're saying companies shouldn't be worth billions of dollars. If you go that route and cap companies at a billion dollars, then they will not be able to grow. If they don't grow, then they eventually go bankrupt since alot of them are filled with debt.

    Also billions are spent every year fighting starvation by the UN. People are still starving.

    You can't stop starvation simply by throwing money at it. it's more complicated than that.

    And maintaining an illegal monopoly for more than a decade

    Pull ya skirt up b.

    if we're talking about monopolies, then I agree with you. Google has become too big but that doesn't mean they exploited anyone on their way to becoming billionaires.

    That's the govt job to create laws so things dont get too control and they're doing that right now.

    But that's a whole different conversation.

    And theres enough food on the planet to feed the earth multiple times over. The problem with hunger is an allocation of resources and political bullshit perpetrated by leaders and lobbyists that are gasp amassed in wealth and influence.

    Saying no one should make X amount of money in a capitalistic country like the US doesnt make sense bro.

    This country was founded based on capitalism. Are you just against capitalism in general???

    Ima just say this: If every company worth billions currently had a hard cap and eventually was forced to go bankrupt…

    New York doesnt “go orange” this year

    And that alone is why every billionaire aint seeing heaven.

    Huh? That's not exploitation bro.

    If I give you something in exchange for something, then everyone benefits.

    In exchange for Google having access certain users information, you get better search results and better advertising tailored to you.

    Google has a terms of service about this.

    Now if they do something like crazy with that data like Facebook did, then they need to be held accountable.

    it's about checks and balances.

    If someone has a problem with your data being used, people have options on getting a search engine that doesn't use their data.

    So trying to cover up sexual harrassment played a part in them being a billionaires? F***ing over those ppl who are being sexually harrassed helped them be billionaires? lol be forreal.

    Amassing 50 billion in assets in America is not ludicrous. America is a capitalistic country with a heavy consumer market and has the strongest economy in the world.

    Remember what I said. 4.3 billion users use Google. With so much people using Google of course Larry and Sergei are gonna be billionaires. They don't have to f*** anyone over.

    The software engineers who helped Google become what it is got rewarded through equity and are multi millionaires and got promoted to senior positions and the current engineers who are working on Google right now are paid very well (267k - 1 million) .So please don't use the "poor pay; they're gettin exploited" argument.

    What you're saying doesn't apply to alot of billionaires.

    I just gave you a real life example but you'll keep pushing this "you can't be billionaire without f***ing someone" because you have a crab mentality and need someone to blame. Please educate yourself and be more open minded.

    So trying to cover up sexual harrassment played a part in them being a billionaires? F***ing over those ppl who are being sexually harrassed helped them be billionaires?

    This was also insultingly dishonest. Lot of sexual misconduct scandals result in companies losing money
