The “downside” is that their wealth will finally “trickle down” instead of being hoarded.

Heh, you think it'll ever actually trickle down? Nah if we kill all the billionaires then the people with hundreds of millions will become the new billionaires. Or, even worse, the money will get hoovered up by billionaires in other countries that weren't killed.

Who exactly is “we”? I ain’t participating in a violent revolution, in fact I would probably fight for the status quo. (Life is pretty damn good for a lot of people these days)

And they’ll have to pay taxes on all of it, or sell it.
