That's true

His web of business is a job producer---but as you say concentrates
wealth into his hands

Gates is unique

The top 400 WEalthiest familes in america own/control about 95% of all
the wealth. *Since the late 90's (under GOP congresses) they have
amassed hundreds of billions of dollars---yet "created" few businesses
that create jobs.

They were allowed to make billion by "keeping their money" (literally
tax free) and using it to create more wealth on Wall street. *It's the
Ideal "dick armey" goal. *


Yes. Demonstrably true in every regard. Not the whole story, but a
big part of it.
