The problem with this is creates a bunch of micro-musks, who can get high ideals for shifting society into their warped perceptions by sniffing their own virtuous farts.

The system we have certainly isn’t fair or efficient, but it’s better than feudalism dressed up as altruistic capitalism.

The Chan-Zuckerbergs stopped funding social causes. 400 kids lost their school. Priscilla Chan’s decision to stop funding the school she opened to help struggling families shows the risks for communities reliant on wealthy private donors.

Using money for charity is great, but having the government tax and manage it all instead is much, much better. Because it won't suddenly disappear. Unless your ruler's name is Donal Trump.

Uh... Given their values it is very likely they do donate to charities, but how far do you think a million can go in the modern day? You say "build housing," but a million dollars are like, a house? Two houses? Until you reach the hundreds of millions level of obscene wealth, you need numbers before you can get anything done, so pushing for higher taxation is one of the most productive things this person can do with their time and money.

All throughout most modern history ... if you set up an economic system where you allow humans to gain unbelievable amounts of wealth and ask them or wait for them to share it, they never do and instead use that wealth to gain even more sums of wealth in a never ending cycle. I know plenty of wealthy people and they do share their wealth, just not in the sums you want to imagine - they share a few hundreds or thousands here and there but never enough to create meaningful change and never in the amounts to affect the growth of their wealth.

You're pushing a few false dichotomies there.
