npub1lrvmc88ck63qpt734w85t5pnxchncvam0p9k9mueuezqz0grkn6s8jtth9 (npub1lrv…tth9) Why would it matter if they had, or had not, kept their earnings? Your question seems similar to asking billionaires who argue that taxes are too low, like Nick Hanauer or Warren Buffett, why they don't voluntarily pay more than the law requires.
In both cases, asking the question shifts the conversation from one about real issues to one about the morality of the individual raising the issue. It converts a debate about principles into an ad hominem attack. That isn't useful.
