Yeah, I'm sure that explains it, but it doesn't justify it.
Do you see no value in tax incentives for investment? Also, keep in mind those very top people are likely not at the top that long. As someone else pointed out, those could be people that sold their company.
Warren Buffett and Bill Gates say capital gains tax should be raised.

Unless you are a buying stock at a public offering, most "stock investing" is not investing into a company. The company doesn't benefit from the money you are "investing". If you bought $1 million shares of Google. Google doesn't get that money or use it for its operations.
If you owned stock in a public corporation, you'd be smarted to sell it over time to reduce the tax impact.

that is simply not true. the more you buy stocks in a company, the more its market cap goes up. with higher market cap, it is easier to invest in new businesses, acquire other companies, hire better people through stock incentives, etc...
In theory, the market cap of the company is the current value of all future returns.

For now actual billionaires don't agree with your statement.
