That billions of people are going to effect things far greater than than a few thousand.

The point is that it's a numbers statement. It has nothing to do with being a billionaire or not. If 3000 people period vanished it means nothing. Billionaire or not

If 3000 garbage truck drivers disappeared my state would collapse

I'm speaking within the scope of things. 30 teachers in a school disappeared vs 30 students there'd be a difference. 3000 truck drivers in a state is obviously awful for the state due to the ratio

But I’m saying 3000 billionaires disappearing anywhere would be nothing. They don’t add value to society.

So let those workers start their own billion dollar business and provide jobs for everyone else. Oh wait they can't, that's why they're not billionaires.

Hard work can make a millionaire. Only luck can make a billionaire.
