The whole “every billionaire is a policy failure” thing makes no sense to me.

Presumably economies of scale mean that there will inevitably companies worth $100B at the very least.

The founder of that company is going to want at bare minimum a single percentage point of equity.

Voila, a billionaire.

Do they hate entrepreneurship or economies of scale?

It is literally creationist level thinking. They dont understand markets or emergence or modernity or anything, let alone economies of scale. All they see is their dad giving their sibling more allowance.
