Pretty sure if all the billionaires were written in a death note then would-be billionaires would think twice. What's missing is repeated culling, then they would do more then think twice.

This still doesn't stop the problem, though. Because the corporations they own will still operate, and their multimillionaire shareholders will just avoid technically reaching the billion mark. Billionaires aren't the problem, they are a symptom.
