in order to try to offset their supposed loss by having to pay their fair share of taxes and be responsible to society and the people who made them rich and who keep them rich.Unfettered capitalism is a disaster and results in a gov controlled only by the very wealthy and often leads to dictatorships.

Another area that needs control is pricing of pharmaceuticals and healthcare. It can all be done. Doctors on salary etc. My Uncle was a pulmonologist in Canada for many years. He made a very good living and was head of a hospital dept for years also. He didn't go into it to become very wealthy but to help people and he was a great doctor.
