    I think so, yeah. Also, billionaire means anything more than 1 billion, right? It might help to look at how much wealth they actually have; for example, if one nation has 1 billionaire (with $30 billion) and another has 30 billionaires (each with $1 billion), I wouldn’t argue that the former is especially better off.

        You only need one guillotine. But really though, if he’s hoarding the same amount of resources as the 30 are, what’s the difference? At least spread out among 30 individuals it’s (somewhat) less power and influence in a single person’s hands.
