            I’m not providing anything because the fact that inheritances exist isn’t something that requires a peer reviewed study.

            But you know this since you’re being intentionally obtuse.

              your assertion isn’t that inheritances exist, but that removing billionaires will result in more billionaires continuing the destruction of the planet. there is no evidence for this, since billionaire removal has not been tested.

                  but we don’t know that they would continue the actions that led to their predecessors removal. it’s an interesting theory and we can test it!!

                    I’m sure there have been billionaires who have died since billionaires have been a thing, and a company suddenly not being capitalistic would make headlines.

                    It’s the mega corporations and capitalism that allow billionaires to exist in the first place. Until the world has a major economical rewrite, billionaires and the companies who make them are going to keep doing whatever possible to profit, and that is rarely good for the earth or the people on it.

                    Sure, there are going to be exceptions to the rule, but outliers will always exist.
