The billionaires are living what the right wing talking heads call "The American Dream." They (supposedly) worked hard to get where they are and they deserve the rewards of success. All the left (supposedly) wants to do is take it away from them and hand it out to the poor as entitlements.
I got no problem with people working hard and getting rich. The slippery slope comes when someone reaches a sort of financial "critical mass" where their holdings are so massive and so diverse that they cannot help but continue to rake in piles of money. These guys never say, "I'm rich enough, I will leave that opportunity for someone else." It's bad business to pass up a good opportunity.
They get so big that it's literal pocket change to snuff out any small-time competition, either by buying them out or pricing them out of the market. It's bad business to let the competition get a foothold in your industry and they would be a fool to not eliminate the competition if they have the ways and means to do so legally.
What's the solution? It's not right to take from them or tell them that they can't make money. It's also not right that these super-wealthy people take from us and tell us that we can't make money through their business practices and actions.
The wealthy winge and minge about how the government is taking so much money from them in taxes and fees, and say how if the government would just leave them alone they would make more jobs. Really? You got stuff for people to do? If you did, why did you have that reduction-in-workforce just before Christmas? Paying people to do "make work" or nothing at all is bad business too BTW.
How about this, rich guys? The government is not taking anywhere near everything you have. Why don't you start making some of these jobs and get more people paying taxes? Make some of those jobs you say you'd create if not for the overbearing government. If you can prove that it works the government will surely cut your taxes so you can create even more jobs.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
