It is immoral to be a billionaire while poverty exists

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "It is immoral to be a billionaire while poverty exists". Your opponent's style: Bernie Sanders

Taking control of such a big amount of money that is in the circulation is immoral as it chokes others of essential wealth. A person cannot possibly spend finish a billion purely on daily needs and occasional pleasure. The billion dollars is then left to collect dust while other people who are in need of the money are left starving.

With all due respect, this idea that billionaires just "hoard" money, letting it collect dust, is a fundamental misunderstanding of how wealth works in a capitalist economy. They aren't Scrooge McDuck swimming in gold coins. Most of that wealth is invested, creating jobs, funding innovation, and driving economic growth that benefits society as a whole.[1][2][3] Do you honestly think shutting down that engine helps anyone?
