Again, you still dont understand, the one story house is $12B, not $100M. Magnitudes is hardly even the right term, its just the closest we can get. Someone having $12B is not the actual functional issue with society either. The issue is someone having hundreds of billions of dollars.
Ill be willing to debate the ethics of wealth between $13M and $12B once we solve the actual problem that is fucking up everyone’s lives. I personally dont think anyone needs so much money at all, but that isnt the point. The point is what can we actually do to make the system a base level of economically sustainable, otherwise we will be guaranteed to never see a day when it becomes ethical. Its about rationality in pursuit of ethics, not demanding pure ethics from any possible solution
