Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist — Really? Let’s Break It Down.

Social media is screaming that billionaires are the root of all evil.
"Tax the rich!"
"Redistribute their wealth!"
"Nobody needs that much money!"

In this episode, Matt Haycox takes aim at one of the most viral (and flawed) arguments online right now. He unpacks why billionaires aren’t the problem, but envy, oversimplification, and a broken system might be.
