World's first trillionaire just 10 years away as richest men double their wealth​

Since 2020, a year marked by the spread of a pathogen that killed millions of people, the world's five richest men have seen their collective wealth more than double as five billion people across the globe have lost ground and hunger has surged, underscoring the deep inequality that is fueling mass discontent and eroding democracies.

"Runaway corporate and monopoly power is an inequality-generating machine: Through squeezing workers, dodging tax, privatizing the state, and spurring climate breakdown, corporations are funneling endless wealth to their ultra-rich owners," said Behar. "But they're also funneling power, undermining our democracies and our rights.

Trillionaire equals:
"Owner and absolute monarch of Planet Earth."
Do with that what you will.

These day you can win the lotto and become a instant billionaire and nobody cares. But heaven forbid that you actually work and earn a billion dollars. Then you become the devil making money off other people backs.

Most of us work our asses off. Take that bullshit, tie a bootstrap around it, and mail it to Horatio Alger's grave.

Trickle down works so well that its proponents claim that it doesn't exist.

And the suggestion is exactly what?

That one person shouldn't have more money than most countries.

That one person shouldn't have more money than most countries.

That is a statement, not a suggestion (as in what to do about this.)

Raise the taxes on the super rich back to the level of the 80s.

Trump became a trillionaire in 1997. Fake news won't report that truth because they are triggered by his manly awesomeness.
