3 Wealthiest have more wealth than the bottom 175 million people in USA

[Råb!d]

That is wealth inequality.

The wealthiest 20 billionaires in the US have a "combined wealth of $2.7 trillion, which is more than the annual GDP of countries like Russia ($2.2T), Canada ($2.1T), and Italy ($2.0T)."

Forbes "reports that the typical U.S. family is presently worth some $80,000" and has declined 3%.

Since election day 2024 the top 3 wealthiest have made 10's of billions of dollars.

Why are the bottom 99% fighting among one another? Do we really believe that these billionaires have our interest in mind?

Only utterly braindead drones actually believe that equality is "communism."

I expected nothing less from you!

They believe anything is Communism, really; even basic human decency.

Every country has Universal Healthcare, but ultranationalista from the US think that its a question of pride and national identity to have a complete anti-humanitarian, 100% private, healthcare.

You really want to hurt the economy and piss off the Elites? Save your money.

I wonder how many jobs those top three billionaires have created.

Actually, they close up jobs.

Its a widely known Economical phenomenum. Their monopolies create much less jobs than they close down. They also damage the Economy in Trillions, by closing down thousands of business.

So much concentration of wealth is not even in the Capitalist playbook. It is a travesti. It is a deturpation of what Capitalism stands for: competition.

You should wish for more micro, small, and medium sized companies, instead of massive conglomerates, that are too big to exist in basic Capitalist rules.

We're witnessing the total breakdown and abuse of the Capitalist structure. It is not fair play and hardwork that created these beasts.

Spend in local and small business, actually.

Rotating money is what actually drives progress and welfare.

Those hundred-Billionaires are stagnating progress and killing diversity.

If you want to be a billionaire, just move to Zimbabwe.

It's that easy.

Look at Mr Moneybags over here bragging about having 10 billion.

hmm.. well if I did the math right, if you took their $2.7 trillion and divided it up equally among "the bottom" 175 million Americans, they would each get a cool $1542.86. That'll sure help out everyone in the long term right? Or do you mean for all of that money to pay off the tax debt? Because, that wouldn't really even put much of a dent in it. Or could it be that you just hate to see others doing better than you financially? You can preach equality all that you want, but in the end, all that you would accomplish is dragging everyone else down to the bottom level eventually.

because divide and conquer works for them. they keep us divided because they know.
no, their only interest is their own survival. and they know it really good
