I thought some of those polling numbers would be higher. Do people really think it serves a purpose for tech companies to hold ALL the wealth? People must have heard a bit about economics in high school and figured there was no need to think critically beyond that.

After giving this a great deal of thought, it's clear that the American electorate is completely captured. They will always vote to further the interests of corporations. This will not change until the money is removed from politics. The good news is that bad actors at the top (grifters, rent-seekers, etc) will continue to stash their ill-gotten gains into assets like stocks and real estate, so as long as you own some, you'll enjoy the fruits of their labors.
