It isn't how much money but how you make it.

No billionaire ever made their money without necessitating the exploitation that is inherent to being an owning class citizen. Yet, there are also plenty of people of much lesser net worth who exploit workers all the same, just to a smaller extent.

Remember the problem isn't just billionaires but the system that enables their existence and those who willingly choose to perpetuate it.

When someone tells you that revolution is not necessary, speaking to you of voting for parties or local councilors, or agreeing with whatever faction of the bourgeois, if he is one of your comrades who works like you, try to persuade them if their mistake. If, on the contrary he is bourgeois or wanting to find the way of becoming bourgeois, consider them an enemy and carry on your way. Enrico Malatesta – "Between Peasants", 1884.
