World's Richest People Have More Than Doubled Their Wealth Since 2008
Here's a peek at the rising tide of inequality that shows no signs of slowing down.
You should move to a country without any rich people.The problem with inordinate wealth is that money buys power; it buys politicians; it buys anti-regulation of drug prices, industrial pollution, poor land use, wall street, etc. It buys legislation to restrict welfare; make healthcare expensive. It leads to oligarchy. It's great for the wealthy, but not the poor.
/----/ You've mistaken will with could. Let me correct your post: The problem with inordinate wealth is that money COULD buy power; it COULD buy politicians; it COULD buy anti-regulation of drug prices, industrial pollution, poor land use, wall street, etc. It COULD buy legislation to restrict welfare; it COULD make healthcare expensive. It COULD lead to oligarchy. It's great for the wealthy, but not the poor.The problem with inordinate wealth is that money buys power; it buys politicians; it buys anti-regulation of drug prices, industrial pollution, poor land use, wall street, etc. It buys legislation to restrict welfare; make healthcare expensive.

Now maybe that is what you would do with wealth, but it doesn't apply to everyone. BTW the wealthy do help the poor in many ways, creating jobs, through charity and so pn.
Everything he said is spot on.You should move to a country without any rich people.The problem with inordinate wealth is that money buys power; it buys politicians; it buys anti-regulation of drug prices, industrial pollution, poor land use, wall street, etc. It buys legislation to restrict welfare; make healthcare expensive.

There'd be nothing to buy if the politicians havd no power to sell it....Yet those who've demanded for an all-powerful State that meddles in nearly every aspect of our lives, get all pissy when people of means show up to buy off the protection racketeers.The problem with inordinate wealth is that money buys power; it buys politicians; it buys anti-regulation of drug prices, industrial pollution, poor land use, wall street, etc. It buys legislation to restrict welfare; make healthcare expensive.

I'm quite happy actually.Listen to the malcontents chiming in.
Congratulations but you missed the point.My net and growth has both more than doubled over the last 10 years. My homes and properties I own are at ridiculous levels. My 401k investment is up 38% this year alone. My personal savings remain stable but thats because so much is invested rather than sitting in a bank account.
And heres the really cool part. None of my gains cost any of you a penny. In fact, the only people that are miserable are the people not working...on welfare, or in every other way they can manage finding a way to kick their own ass. Yeah...THOSE guys have a tendency to bitch about the inherent unfairness of a system that creates such a divide. But if you look past the woes is me mentality you learn there is no system oppressing you. The only people oppressing you are you and that pathetic rat bastard that stares back at you from the mirror every morning.
You are wrong; It has been happening for decades. Don't you understand lobbyists and PACs and favors for large political donations?. I don't know where you live but I am talking about the US./----/ You've mistaken will with could.

/----/ Ask a grown up to explain the difference between will and could. I can't make it simpler for you.You are wrong; It has been happening for decades.

/----/ Great news. I'm happy and have neither a yacht or a Lamborgini hanger.

But I like seeing everyone be happy, not just the ones with yachts
and Lamborghini hangars.
/---/ Gold nuggets? Your class envy is laughable. Gold nuggets???Congratulations but you missed the point.My net and growth has both more than doubled over the last 10 years.
