Is a millionaire who runs a hedgefund the kind of person who deserves to be living in luxury after what they've done? Those who instigate wars that they then profit from? Drug companies selling products which they know are contaminated with HIV, but they put profit first so continue to sell. (See Bayer). Even CEO's who plan to deliberately have products designed such that they break sooner so as they have to be replaced. Monsanto releasing Terminator Seeds so as farmers have to buy more seeds from them.
This is the Dirty side of Capitalism. It's becoming harder for the good guys to compete with the companies who profit from such dirty tactics. Better regulation is obviously needed, but not the kind of corrupt regulation that we get from the FDA
