More like pressuring 1,000,000 of your friends to give away their Mars bars. Collectively, they can do more good than you giving away your whole hoard.

Maybe if all the hoarders were forced not to hoard, we wouldn't need to give away our mars bars, because everyone would already have 5.

I dont think its the celebrities hoards that are the problem, though. Those tend to be a drop in the bucket compared to the actual capitalists.

Not saying that there isnt occasional crossover, but just being well known doesn't make you a billionaire, and they often work longer and harder than most billionaires.

I mean it's a simplified analogy for inequality, but yeah, yes.
