    Hoarding is not illegal, maybe it should be, certainly at scale but currently it is not so measures to stop it are not lawful at this time.

      Lol. The way you make something illegal is by passing laws. It’s not unlawful to pass laws

        Hoarding is not the correct way to think of billionaires amassing grotesque wealth, hoarding is the old couple putting cash under the bed. For the old couple it is their money and their business. What billionaires do is a significant societal drain on resources and should be dealt with accordingly, akin to war crimes.
