    Billionaires need the working class. The working class does not need billionaires.

        Jobs are created by those who put money in i.e. the consumers. If people don't shop at a store then that doesn't need workers. Billionaires don't create jobs, we do. We are a consumer economy.

        Yep, and if there were no billionaires there would be way more of those smaller companies.

        billionaires make companies that employ the working class. they both work together to create cohesion. you can’t have one without the other.

        We don't need a small number of people to hoard excessive wealth and monopolise markets to create jobs.
