Just 8 men own same wealth as half the world

[zuyfg888]

I haven't researched about this case but if this is true then I can say that if the money would be spread to all people in the world then there would not be poor or rich people and all would be considered equal. World populations is estimated to 7 billion so those 8 men are as rich as 3.5 billion people in the world.

We all citizens must know about this research, but we must know if it is only a research or it is not a fact. We cannot claim that there are only 8 men own same wealth, because some other people, or others save money in bank, we cannot see their true money. But it is true to spread money for poor people, to have a fair living.

  I often think how much money I need to have to buy house on very nice place, new car, house on a see, and to have money for the rest of my life for food and other things. My calculations are on 1 million euros! Thats right with 1 million I can have all this! And I ask my self what can this men do with their billions? What? For what and for whom are they making that money? Stupid people, thats is what I think about them and I wonder how they can sleep at night. Cause of this 8 people and their followers kids die every day cause they dont have food and watter, and do I need to start talking about poverty in this world? Shame on them!

They are not interested in your opinion. They have completely different costs and completely different needs. For them your million euros is not money at all. For all this, they will not give you a penny because it contradicts their ideology.

 
   Please explain me why some rich person needs a house with 13 Bedrooms, 12 Bathrooms, 11 guestrooms? Is it interesting to take a poop in different bathroom each time? And sleep in different bed every night? This is just one example of their stupidity, and ah I to mention how in some restaurants Coca-Cola cost 10 $ or more, and in some it cost half a dollar, but people this people are paying to be seen.
   V1ryspro, your nickname is hard to wrote, and cause of people like you, so called supporters of this system nothing is changing, we are where we are, and I bet you are one of the people who wish big house with all this rooms, and million other things that you will not use but you will have them. But in grave we are going naked, nobody carries nothing there.

that's the reason why the world is imbalance. life is always unfair. they keep on recieving money but they dont give. maybe you would say that " that is business " but you know. just to balance the world if you have kind heart then you should give tot those who needed.

you should pay your employees proper and based on their talents and effort. we should not just pay them on what they dont deserve.

8 people with the same wealth as 3500000000 people. Insane.

The system is rigged and nothing will happen until enough people are so deep in shit that they can't handle it anymore and the revolution begins.

That or the rich and powerful turn to fascism to stop people from fighting back. Why not? Has happened before. And they already support it in other countries when convenient for them. They will do the same to their country if it means they continue in power.

It has always been the same, and it will always be the same. Nobody will or can do shit about it.

Get hundreds of thousands or millions of people in the street calling for change. Start with getting money out of politics.

If that is true then I dont have problem with that so far they made their money and they are not stooping anyone from making his own.

That is part of the problem. They use their power and influence to make sure they stay ahead. No matter the cost to everyone else. Smoking causes cancer? Let's fund propaganda that says otherwise. Climate Change? No, that is just a conspiracy. The government doesn't let them form a monopoly or cartel? Bribe the politicians. Etc.

This disparity is creating a lot of difference. There should be some extra taxes on such billionaires so that they can contribute extra to the welfare of the needy people

Can't agree with any such measure. Are you going to punish them for being able to make money? If you do so, then they will simply close their factories and stay at home. Millions of people will lose their jobs and the government will receive a much reduced tax revenue.

The trouble is that usually such people do not pay taxes in full. An example of this Trump. He will now demand taxes from others if you do not pay them himself? The problem is that only the poor pay taxes.

Doubt it. They won't stop and stay home because they would make a little less money. Didn't when the tax rate was up to 90% for the top bracket. But more important it's not shoveling billions or trillions of dollars into half a dozen guys that creates jobs. It's demand. It's having a functioning economy where people have enough money to spend and do so. That is a healthy economy. And not only do corporations and the rich evade taxes as others said but they are just sitting on trillions of dollars at the moment. That money could easily revitalize the economy and improve our lives if they invested it instead or it was taxed.

OMG just shut up and kill yourself stupid sheep ><
It's impossible to discuss with someone actually thinking that someone earning billions CAN DESERVE IT ><

I do not like those who earns a lot of money and spends it on their well-being. From them no good. In order to enrich themselves they take them from others. However, they are so because society allows them. Who is to blame?

Thank you this is interesting.
The question you added is the right one. Who is to blame? I would just add "what should be changed?"

Those people are only partly responsible that's for sure. The whole society is built in giving them more and more, they would have to make huge effort to change the society... Into a society less favorable to them. That's not logical ^^
So I'm not saying we should just kill them all sure... Those just living in this system well they did nothing wrong. Nothing good but nothing wrong.
Problem is that lots of them are using their power and wealth to continue abusing the system and transforming society into something more and more unequal.

And THAT is a crime.
A crime for which they should be punished.

Unfortunately that peaceful means will not solve the problem. Once America was called a country with equal opportunities. Now it is not. Most of these 8 billionaires Americans. This means that they are simply monitoring the global financial flows.

We all cannot assure that there were only 8 men that are wealth, but instead of knowing this, you must only go inspired with this. We can see if you can belong with these 8 people. We cannot see all those others who is not belong with this 8, but we must open our eyes to see what is the truth

Just 8 men own same wealth as half the world

Eight men own the same wealth as the 3.6 billion people who make up the poorest half of humanity, according to a new report published by Oxfam today to mark the annual meeting of political and business leaders in Davos.

Oxfam’s report, ‘An economy for the 99 percent’, shows that the gap between rich and poor is far greater than had been feared. It details how big business and the super-rich are fuelling the inequality crisis by dodging taxes, driving down wages and using their power to influence politics. It calls for a fundamental change in the way we manage our economies so that they work for all people, and not just a fortunate few.

New and better data on the distribution of global wealth – particularly in India and China – indicates that the poorest half of the world has less wealth than had been previously thought.  Had this new data been available last year, it would have shown that nine billionaires owned the same wealth as the poorest half of the planet, and not 62, as Oxfam calculated at the time.

If eight people has hold the same wealth poor people has on earth is a great inequality. What this means if it true is there will ever be war on earth. The poor masses' has been brain wash by the social media, radio and tv that they arm are the reason there is Government but in this report I think it is better we should not have Government. Leaders all over the world are pulpy to the wealthiest of the earth. The Rothschild control 95% of the central and treasure house around the world. Most war been fight on earth today is for the evils interest of those evil man to keep their fellow human beings in forever slavery and poverty. God is watching us.

The poor people remain in poverty, because they give more importance to producing children than education. Take the Philippines for example. The Catholic church has banned family planning in that country. As a result, there are more than 100 million people living in tiny crowded islands. The population is fed by the remittance sent by the migrant workers.

Damn man, you understand that everytime you write something the whole forum loses IQ points? :/

That's incredible how you put the blame on individuals and not on systems and institutions... Like someone who was never taught about contraception in a country where contraception is NOT free NOT available everywhere and NOT culturally admitted, is to be blamed for not using it...

It seems to me that not all the fault of the Church. The poorer the country the less educated people and the more children they have. They have no purpose in life. Children mi is necessary as slaves. Girls are sold into sexual slavery and the boys support their families.

It's a medieval economy, ffs, with aristocrats and royalties. Democracy is a joke, we actually live in aristocracy.

All the renessaince and enlightenment age is fading away and we are going into barbarous dark ages, where brutality increases again.

WTF is happening in europe, what is all that fucking violence? It's just horible.



Wealth inequality is just 1 sympthom, but the violence is the other, people are very violent these days. Why???



People must become civilized now, and give up this violent bullshit.

[grermezter]

Well i will say the earn their money no two ways about it, They worked hard and thought deep.
