We don’t let people own atomic bombs [...] and yet, we let people amass fortunes that they can use to do far more damage than any nuclear weapon.

Damn that is very well put. I thought I knew where you were going with that analogy -- like that there are just some things we don't allow people to have. But the comparison of the power of a nuclear bomb and 11 digit wealth is really really good.

No matter what you do with that kind of wealth, it is a level of force that should not be wielded without the consent of the people it will affect.
