Yes, because hoarding billions means it was stolen from someone else. Either through low wages, low taxes, loopholes, or unethical business practices.

Nobody should ever be able to accumulate billions of dollars. We have people who will be trillionaires in our lifetime. Unjustifiable.

No it isn't? Usually it just means owning stock in a company, that others want to buy. That stock isn't "stolen", neither is the value that others assign to it.

Maybe not stolen, but capital is definitely extracted from the working class and the people who actually create the things that are making these stockholders money.
