Wealth of the World’s Billionaires Has More Than Doubled Over the Past Decade
Wealth of the World’s Billionaires Has More Than Doubled Over the Past Decade
Bezos next
Musk still has a $122B lead on Bezos, and made $104B of it in the last 32 days.
He has a $122 BILLION lead, and he's earned $133 BILLION over the past year.
His wealth has increased by 50% over the past year alone
How in the fuck?
I just have to say, we shouldn't even be targeting musk with this; we need to be going after his family.
Once musk is out of the picture, they're just going to inherit the wealth and continue to use it to gain more wealth as quickly as they think possible.
Keep in mind, as it stands right now, his kids expect our kids to serve them.
Unlimited respect for more vitamin DDD
Why're people downvoting you?
Because his security goons reading this too lol
It is cute how rich waste all this money to check social media for threat actors while we are just posting and commenting from our moms basements
Real men like the Adjuster just get the job done without providing signals for pinkertons to scarpe.
The parasite classes should note that when they get deposed, we didn't see nothing.
Some of them literally have their money in Euros and European companies, which the US does not control. I'm not going to whine if you wanna revolution, that's understandable, but be factual on the way.
USD is the king but yeah euro system is the other half of the orphan crushing machine
They subject to the same rules and interoperabile
Oligarchs can move within eurodollar no problems
They took it by force, why can't we?
If things continue the way that they are, we’ll have one shop for everything, we’ll all drive the same car, get your energy from the same company…
A cabal of Digi-tech-al robber Barons running the country openly. Elon Musk is going to be a staff member of the US Government.
Dude, I think that sentiment is shared among all the political spectrum. What happens after is what we tend to debate. I love communism in a vacuum, but many just see it as changing one corruptible system for another.
I somehow like the system Germany kinda has. More Social while still having control. Some say its hard to become rich as a company, but also you can have many securities. Still. I prefer a mix of both worlds
I'm sorry that I whine about not killing people.
As someone that has taken beating after beating I'm not down with violence except the verbal type. But worry not they take crazy-ies like me out to fields, make us dig our own graves, and then shoot us into them.
So maybe I have a different view of "violence for change" than you do.
For what benefit?
None, that's the funny part. You could almost call it a flaw with humanity as a whole.
We can't focus on any sort of task-at-hand for any greater good. We simply are just that self centered and greedy, despite those of us that fight against that nature, it's still our nature.
Climate change? You can't make people wear masks in grocery stores or vaccinate, good luck with the climate.
Two options, if you're shilling for billionaires:
They're intrinsically 10,000x better than you and me and deserve to be 10,000x richer.
It's just theirs. It says so somewhere, no backsies.
Pure trickle-down had it's day too, but it's it's a joke again in modern times, for the most part. You may object that these are all weak arguments, but basically, you and what army?
Edit: "We need a remote chance of becoming a billionaire for anyone to go to work" is kind of a blend of trickle-down and argument number one, but I suppose I should mention it, just for the sake of completeness
This is either a boring rhetorical question or a very confused one.
Honestly, I think a lot of it is just to support the idea that those who have more, deserve more.
Useful idiots are in vogue. They live vicariously through their oppressors while working service jobs for scraps.
I mean, my wealth has more than doubled over the past decade. The stock market has been going absolutely bananas, and my retirement accounts have done well.
I guess when corporate media told us the economy was doing great, it was you they were talking to, and not the other ~80–90% of Americans.
Your wealth has more than doubled. So? A significant number of people are in the shit. But I suppose as long as you’re doing ok, that’s alls that matters….
OK for some I guess.
The system is working as intended.
Past time to change the system.
Those who benefit and think they benefit from it will fight back, though.
maybe we should kill them?
They'll double next decade too, don't worry. We humans aren't really good at this planetary dominion shit. We've only really been at it for 200 years or so and we're already fucking up.
It's more like they have tons of more money and larger numbers in their portfolio. it's however not a significant increase in actual wealth, since the money they have is increasingly wort less and the worth of their assets are increasingly more and more speculative in nature. The pockets of billionaires is where all the printed money eventually ends up and society is no richer for it. The money contributes to inflation, but it really doesn't get invested or anything.
What are you getting at?
Everyone's wealth doubled.
Why would you think that?
