Why are people not protesting ? Businesses should stop buying Microsoft licenses and that should force Microsoft to remove bill gates completely from the company. Same should be done with Musk, trump etc.

    Bill Gates wealth came from his ownership of shares of the company, Microsoft

    It’s not that Bill has been funneling all the income of the company into his pockets, no, it’s that when he sells shares of the company then other people are willing to pay massive sums for it because everyone has collectively agreed the company is extremely valuable.

    Right… people are aware of this. Don’t pretend we’re arguing about how shares work. What we are saying is that the system being setup like this is fundamentally broken and the scam is in the design.
