Money Won't Save Them Now
Pretty ironic that the wealthiest men in Pakistan are stuck in a submarine a week after hundreds of Pakistani refugees drowned trying to get to Greece because these guys are pilfering all the country's money for themselves.

It really depends which billionaires. Believe it or not, some billionaires aren't bad people (probably). Billionaires are just people with a ton of money and power at the end of the day, and we should judge them on their actions, not their bank balance, regardless of our suspicions of how they got so rich.
However, if we could stick (for example) the Sacklers, Kochs and Murdochs in a sub and send it to Challenger Deep with just enough oxygen to get there and plenty of ballast, we'd definitely be doing the world a favour. These scumbags have a huge amount of blood on their hands, and while it would be better to see them in jail, we never will, so fantasising about their horrible demise is the most we can really do.
No one is able to accumulate that much wealth without being complacent to human suffering somewhere along the line. The only billionaire I think isn't a bad person would be Mackenzie Scott, and I'm sure she sat there knowing what was happening at Amazon for quite a while.
No. Fucking stop believing them.
There are no good billionaires. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0Cu6EbELZ6I
Don't carry water for people who would let you die to increase their mountain of gold a little. What you've described might be true of millionaires, even multi millionaires; but no one gets to a billion dollars without stepping on those below them in the pursuit of more money than one person could ever spend in their lifetime.
Being a billionaire is pathological, if the human race was a biological organism and one part of it started hoarding that many resources, we would call it cancer and cut it out.
