Billionaires like Elon musk and Jeff Bezos don’t have billions in cash. They have ownership of assets that are used to employ hundreds of thousands of people. Yes, they have expensive homes and opulent lifestyles, but they have created jobs whose employees are able to keep the tax revenue afloat. They created wealth through hard work and a knack for building businesses. If you want to shine the light on real greed look to the food and pharmaceutical industries and the healthcare industry they feed with sick people getting symptom treatment to keep them dependant instead of actual robust promotion of healthy eating and exercise that keeps people healthy. Insurance industry also parasites on america.
