It is not immoral for anyone to have a lot of wealth that was created legally.
It is highly immoral for any individual or govt to decide they should confiscate that wealth to use it to fund their own preferred projects, items, desires...

Wealthy people don't swim in a big coin room like Scrooge McDuck.
That money is used to buy things which supports jobs/economy, to invest, which supports jobs/economy & for charity.
As the pie is not fixed in the US, the wealth was created & is not at someone else's expense.

The govt takes in more than $3 trillion at the federal level- that's more than enough $. Spending is the problem.

As for what someone needs, that's not for you to decide. That's why we have individual/property rights. How many square feet is your residence? How dare you have extra footage when people don't have homes? Two kidneys? You only need 1-it's selfish when people need transplants...
...As I said yesterday, principles matter. The principle is that it is not your business to judge what someone else has. It doesn't come at anyone else's expense.
