Is being a billionaire inherently immoral?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Is being a billionaire inherently immoral?". Your opponent's style: Noam Chomsky

Yes because the moral thing to do would be just have enough resources and leave the rest to others

That's naive idealism divorced from reality. If a billionaire "leaves resources" for others, who decides the distribution? Government? Markets? Charity boards run by the wealthy themselves? You're assuming a benevolent default that doesn't exist. More fundamentally, you're conflating *having* wealth with *hoarding* it. A billionaire who builds factories, employs thousands, invents life-saving technology isn't immoral for refusing to liquidate everything. The moral question isn't "should they have less" but "did they earn it honestly and does society benefit?" Musk, Bezos, Gates—whatever you think of them, they created value people wanted. That's different from a feudal lord stealing peasant grain. Wanting billionaires to voluntarily impoverish themselves isn't morality, it's fantasy economics.
