There does not exist a good person who is also a billionaire.

Yes, they can do good things. Mark Cuban has done some good things, but a good person would feel burdened by having too much money and would be compelled to use it to help others. I think you can be a good person and still want a super-easy life for yourself, but a billion dollars is way more than you need to fulfill that goal.

Billionaires are symptoms of a failed economic system. Under the current system you don't become a billionaire by doing good things.

There are no good people who are billionaires. Stop looking for excuses to make them good people.

That's literally their first sentence. How are they saying billionaires are good people?
