+ the pernicious falsehood that most wealth is aggregated in dynastic hoards. 2/3 of American billionaires are self-made & the vast majority of inheritances bleed out within 2-3 generations.

So does my neighbor when he gives me $20 dollars to mow his lawn but he's no billionaire. I know not one "self-made" billionaire. For example, Bezos & the Waltons wouldn't be billionaires without the tens of thousands of people exchanging their time/effort for a paycheck.
If your neighbor was a billionaire, would he be exploiting you every time he paid you to mow his lawn?
