What is it you expect them to do?
Also, a little odd to lump Michael (not Micheal) Moore, who is certainly in the 1%, in with George Soros and Warren Buffett, who are in the 0.0000001%. Mike's got a couple million in the bank, earned entirely off his movies, every one of which is a jeremiad against inequality and the system that perpetuates it. Buffett could sweat twenty billion and still be unimaginably rich.
