Are people getting tired of all the billionaires and their billionairing?

Actually the "great" companies you mention I would say are just marketing successes over substance.

Microsoft the purveyor of shyte products, ideas nicked from others and then used it's position to drive competitors with better products out of the market if they didn't get to take them over.

Microsoft invented the business model where software developers sell the customer cr** half working products and then expect the customers to try iron out the bugs.

Tesla the manufacturer of shyte over priced cars that gimps are falling over themselves to buy as some sort of status symbol.

There is a reason that Tesla's are at the bottom of the JD Power Survey.

Amazon started off selling books online that were cheaper and often not always quickly accessible in bricks and mortar stores.

Of course you will tell us how great they are with their AWS offering, but you may forget to mention that was funded from massive reserves that they like others in your list have built up due to them paying shag all in taxes.

Fair enough Paypal was a good idea, but one could argue that some of the ones that followed have been better.

The one company that you didn't mention that had more of a true visionary and that was Jobs and Apple.

Then again he nicked his original ideas from Xerox.

Gate's parents were highly educated, wealthy and had access at the corporate level to many of the countries biggest companies.

Bezos started Amazon with a 300K loan from his parent and other funding from family friends.

Musk grew up in an extremely wealthy and privileged family.

I'm not saying these guys are just run of the mill intellects, not at all, but they benefitted greatly from the circumstances that they were born into which allowed them to optimize their intellect and that opportunity. They are not the only people to be born in such circumstance and many (most) are nowhere near as successful as these guys, so fair play to them, but they're no Albert Einstein or Nikolai Tesla.

And lets put the communist strawman argument to bed, I'm not advocating for that. I'm advocating for more equitable distribution of wealth that is more reflective of actual contribution rather than luck of opportunity that some enjoy coupled with their hard work and intellect (which some have more than others).

A lot of these people started with nothing, or very little, but had the foresight and/or talent to build extremely successful companies. 

Vastly less, as a percentage I expect than those who have been born in a world of easy access to opportunity and wealth.

Seriously in the grand scheme of automotive engineers Musk ranks, ehhh nowhere.

Oh wait he is the only guy to have created a successful automotive company in US since, I don't know Henry Ford.

BTW he didn't found it, he bought into it and then invested his already vast wealth.

And as Sleepy mentioned I think about Bezos, Musk was for some reason able to convince investors and customers to hang around and even weirder pay more that they originally agreed for their cars.

That is his greatest achievement.

He definitely aint no Diesel, Benz, Otto, Daimler, Porsche, Chapman, Ford or Piëch.

Jesus wept, Tesla is at the forefront of EV vehicles and technology, one of the greatest advances since the advent of the combustion car engine.

How many of those people does Jeff Bezos force to work for Amazon?

A quick google shows that Tesla has 3300 patents globally. Surely you understand that the patents are registered by the company rather than by the main shareholder.

These IP attorneys disagree with you.

Because it becomes incompatible with democracy when you have private entities + individuals with this level of power (given to them by their wealth if discussing people like Musk or Bezos/the huge resources + a monopoly or "too big to fail" position in the case of the large MNC companies, which is of course a connected problem).

As we all know, democracy in the US looks to be in no great shakes at all, and may not survive past next few years if the wrong/right people get their hands on the controls. I don't think these things (growth of inequality, the funnelling of wealth/resources into fewer hands and the rot eating away at US politics + society) are unconnected.

Ok, I will,

Jeff Bezos does not force a single employee to take a job at Amazon against their will, not one.

There are strong corporatist elements to the success of Amazon, SpaceX, Tesla and others.

Amazon moved to a state (Ohio?) that gave tax exemptions to online businesses and then used these tax advantages to undercut all their competitors and then bury them.

France then prevented them from repeating this in their own market by giving legislative protection to SMEs in the bookselling trade.

"Tesla has received more than $3.2 billion worth of direct and indirect California subsidies and market mechanisms since 2009, according to an estimate from Newsom's office."

I do not like the fawning admiration for these CEOs and watching large corporate chains use regulations and tax tricks to wipe the floor with SMEs and put countless independents out of business is not edifying to me. WalMart and Microsoft too.

They haven't produced a superior product as such, just made use of political advantages to undercut on price. Well give me tax and other advantages over my competitors and I'll show you a successful business too.

Now granted life isn't fair and that's just how things go but then we are constantly being asked to admire and suck up to these people which I find distasteful.

Granted Tesla is impressive but then so was DeLorean - yet DeLorean that wasn't kept alive by endless subsidies. It went kaput.

Netscape, a casualty of Microsoft and Bill Gates' anti-competitive tricks, had a superior product in Navigator.

It isn't a free market at the top because there is too much at stake, so winners and losers are chosen to an extent. I would call it semi-corporatist at the very least.

Bezos should not be allowed to turn non-union workers into a slave army. Teddy Roosevelt broke up the railroads for less.

Antitrust legislation is long overdue for these companies which use their market share as a vehicle for direct interference in world affairs in the case of Bezos and Dorsey, and now Musk.

Are Tesla not the applicants, is it not a Tesla registered patent?. Though I do concede that the Tesla employees, or whom they bought it off are listed as the inventors, it is a Tesla assigned patent.

My point stands though, it is Tesla, not its main shareholder listed on the patent as the owner/assignee. Without Tesla/Musk the conditions would not exist for those patent applications, so saying he is not innovative because he isn’t the actual inventor is simple.
