Eliminating billionaires will neutralise their ability to manipulate society at the level they currently do.

Money doesn’t originate from the private sector, if it did it would be fraud. The funding of services, in an economy with sovereignty of its currency, originates from legislation through the budgets passed by the relevant agents.

Permitting any entity to grow more powerful than the entity responsible for regulating it is carcinogenic, if not suicidal.
