Every super rich person who has this mindset should rigorously advocate fair taxation of their peers that is the only chances for a non revolutionary change.
Yes, it is nice that billionaires give away their money, it would be nicer if the people could choose how that money was spent instead of the billionaires.
Not only that, but it's good for one person to donate their excessive wealth, but it'd be great if the other 2700 of them had to relinquish some of it.
To be fair if some ultra rich wanted their money be used efficiently for good they sure as hell wouldn't want them to be taxed.
