There are a lot of reasons to like gabe, from revolutionizing platform distribution and not being a greedy asshole, to treating his employees well and using their time to do altruistic things.

Our lord and savior Gaben

He's still a billionaire. That wealth could be spread out a lot thinner than it is.

He got really rich out of his one business. He wasn't a billionaire 20 years ago and he could have if he decided to become a mogul. He isn't there making his money injecting ads between clicks and milking it either. He made it by mostly pushing technology that benefited the world more than himself

While I agree there should be no billionaires (no single person needs that much), there are much worse people than gaben. I'm sure he'd be the first to give it up if that was the law.
