Top 1 % of world’s population holds as much wealth as bottom 50 %, and 3 people in USA have as much wealth as bottom 50% here. Anyone rich or poor who thinks this is sustainable is kidding themselves. Addressing wealth inequality the great moral & economic challenge of our times.

It’s unconscionable that this tolerated.
How many jobs the 3ppl of US create for the bottom 50 and how many jobs the bottom 50 create for the balance.

That’s not even class politics. It’s justice and common sense that this be challenged and addressed.

But you leave out all context. You leave it to the reader to think these people are mizers, or using their wealth for a greater purpose. Eg. the Gates, Buffett. You may not like the causes they support, but they do good work, and you don’t acknowledge any of it.
