How is a billionaire manchild in charge any better, at least a government is accountable to the people.

In theory, but how many governments can actually be held accountable? The power imbalance is often too great for the people to hold anyone accountable. In many countries, the system is rigged.

The question was how is it better. Sure there is a question of how much accountability there is with the government...but there is zero with a billionaire.

Replace government with billionaire and your statement is made even more true.
