I wish the billionaires were doing this. Instead they are hoarding wealth like angry dragons and comparing piles.

Be careful what you wish for. Being a billionaire gets you lots of ability to inflict unintentional damage because being a billionaire doesn't necessarily mean you understand how to best solve programs outside of your domain. There's also lots of people who will happily lead you to inflict pain on the world by convincing you that it's actually a solution.
