Roger, this system is corrupt. You can work very hard and smart within bounds of legality and not get anywhere. Many of these assholes likely didn't. Even if all of them did hundred millionaires and higher wealth individuals only constitute 0.1%... many lotteries have higher chances of winning a large sum of money than becoming that rich.
In addition, the very system that allows for those to accumulate that much finite wealth and its income is destructive to everyone else. It causes a vicious cycle toward similarities that ended old economic and political systems like slavery, feudalism, mercantilism, etc.
In the long run, its demand destructive.
It's cute you mention moving to some other country, as if its that simple to up and move and work in another country... one is where they are because of friends and family. Do not contest that I should leave my country, otherwise all we get is the counter... no why don't you leave for Cuba or where ever. And nobody is arguing for authoritarian Stalin/Mao brand government and their phony communism. We're talking about real social/capital mixed market system that creates prosperity for all of us.
Becoming super rich is not an indication of being a better person (smarter, work harder, some how have better morality) it's actually more of an indication that you either got super lucky either inheriting a fortune which is 90% of such wealth holders or happened on a legit business that happen to have high demand, did something immoral (Zuckerburg stealing the ideas from those who commissioned him to write the software), or simply lied, stole, and otherwise abused their way harming others to gain their fortunes; findings are that most higher income peoples' pathology tend to be psychopaths.
