I don't think they keep getting appointed to the boards of directors


The decedents of the "robber barons" are a tiny minority of the boards of either all public corporations in the country, or the S&P 500, or the top 100, ect.

Individually they may start out with some advantages. I'm not arguing that they do not. I am arguing that they don't dominate the economy and that the level of control they have over the economy is not growing.
