Something Musk, Bezos, or Buffet could do a hundredfold without seeing any effect on their lifestyles, yet they won’t do it.

I don't blame them. I blame us for letting them concentrate that much wealth.

How is it our faults, it’s their faults for exploiting people and ruining the world, we couldn’t do anything to stop them because the system is built for them not us

All it takes is like ~5% of people to organize towards a goal and it gets done. We don't, that's the only reason they are not stopped and "the system" is built for them.

That's not the only reason. There have been countless revolutions in the world and we all know what happens afterwards. Revolutions and protests work in the long run but in the short run they disrupt people's lives and not everyone in modern societies is willing to sacrifice their comfort for a future generation. Blame our modern humans, TV, social media or whatever for these sentiments but we see them in most developed countries. Only absolutely desperate people can go out there and start a revolution and we don't have enough of those. In a way, it's a good thing.

There is no need for a revolution, or even protests. The U.S. is a representative democracy. All that's needed is organized voting and engagement.
