Richest 2% hold half of world\'s assets
[ QUOTE ]
Personal wealth is distributed so unevenly across the world that the richest two per cent of adults own more than 50 per cent of the world’s assets while the poorest half hold only 1 per cent of wealth. [/ QUOTE ] story continues here There are a few reactions one can have to this. 1. To support or oppose the economic processes that lead to this condition 2. To support or oppose the results themselves. I'm a socialist, and I oppose both the process and the results. I imagine many of you are in favor of the process but oppose the results. Are any of you willing to admit that you support both the process and the results? If so, how bad can the condition of humanity get before your precious capitalist principles become untenable to you? Is there any limit at all to your worship of capitalism? |
