If we killed all billionaires, would that destroy capitalism or would their money just get transferred to their successors? (lemmygrad.ml)

I don’t think it would destroy capitalism as that’s the general basis for the economy.

But history kinda shows (citation needed) that subsequent generations don’t usually keep the … hoard of gold… intact. they’re rich, yes but are not producing “the next thing” just living off the wealth of the previous generation…
