How much is "too much"? In ten years it will likely be far lower than where it starts.
Who decides how much is "too much"? The same people who decide what to do with it.
What evidence do you have that they will handle the money any more responsibly than
the person they took it from?

Be careful using the measure of "worth". You might not be worth as much to them as you
think you are.

In actuality, Jeff Bezos having $1B or $1T makes no difference to your life whatsoever.
If you take all of his wealth you can give everyone on the planet $15. Then what? Pillage
the fortunes of the next two on the list? This is not sustainable.

"No," you say. "Only give it to people in the US." You are not more worthy simply because
you were accidentally born in the same country as Jeff Bezos.

So, we can give it all to a government that is trillions in debt demonstrating they have no
clue how to handle money.

Or, we can leave these guys alone. Your life is better because Amazon exists. Electric cars are sold
today because Elon Musk had more money than you think he should. Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk are
both personally funding spaceflight.

My vote is for trillionaires.
