>Eight men own the same wealth as the 3.6 billion people who make up the poorest half of humanity, according to a new report published by Oxfam today to mark the annual meeting of political and business leaders in Davos.
>Oxfam’s report, ‘An economy for the 99 percent’, shows that the gap between rich and poor is far greater than had been feared. It details how big business and the super-rich are fuelling the inequality crisis by dodging taxes, driving down wages and using their power to influence politics. It calls for a fundamental change in the way we manage our economies so that they work for all people, and not just a fortunate few.
How can you not support wealth distribution Sup Forums?
"Yeah Goyim, the solution is wealth redistribution! Not the Jews who are behind all problems that ever existed heheheh you should kill rich people and start a People's Revolution! That'll work great!"

If you take all the money from all the rich people and give to somebody else, the rich people will simply stop producing wealth. And when they do, the billions of people relying on them for their livelihoods will starve.

Welcome to capitalism, goy.
The world will change once we start taxing wealth instead of earnings.
Bentley Rodriguez
The rich got money. The poor dont.
2 options:
The rich want more money, so they spend more in the hope to earn more. The money is distributed as salaries in the form of a budget and the poor can accept the work to earn that money. Get some skills in it and eventually decide to use their own earned money to create their own company and make more money and hire people to earn more money.
2nd option:
Take the money of the rich, distribute it equally among all people. Everyone has 200 bucks to spend. And no-one has money to spend on the creation of a company. Economic collapse.

What all those leftie """researchers""" fail to show is how the poorest of the poor right now actually have more purchasing power and live better than they used to in the past before global markets were a thing.
Yes, the rich did get filthy rich, and do possess the vast majority of capital. However, since markets are not a zero-sum game, this also means that people below them live better, too. The issue observed here is relative poverty, not objective one.

but the jews ARE the rich people

I guess maybe you should stop buying things from rich people and the corporations in which they invest. Y'know, do your part.

Who gives a shit about poor ranjeets and poor niggers anyway?

Jeremiah Evans
bingo.
there are people who think a guy like warren buffet opens up his wallet and has a billion dollars in it. these are his assets. he has stock. he has investments. his "wealth" is based on the value and projected value of all those investments.
those investments create jobs, they build stuff. his money is tied into them. same goes for the rest of the mega-rich. and it's also not a "pie" where they've taken the whole thing, by the way.

We do support it. The hard way.
Grayson Bennett
All men are not created equal. Some are born swifter afoot, some with greater beauty. Some are born into poverty; and others are born sick and feeble. Both in birth and in upbringing, in sheer scope of ability, every human is inherently different! Yes, that is why people discriminate against one another, which is why there is struggle, competition, and the unfaltering march of progress! Inequality is not wrong, equality is!

ok, distribute all that wealth amongst everyone, 1 day later everyone is poor, including the former 8 richest people

It's like if you totally redistribute Walmart CEO's income to literally every employee the wages will go up by a whopping 2 cents.

Only people below middle class support it.

Ask anyone, "Which do you prefer? 1. You get $50 and I get $50. 2. You get $55 and I get $1000. 3. You get $45 and I get $5.?
Their answer will tell you how much of a commie they are. There is one answer that is the most rational. But the other two will probably be justified appeals to emotion, fairness, power, etc.
Hudson Phillips
The economy as a pie and wealth as a zero-sum game is a (((myth))) that needs to be eradicated.
Alexander White

Brayden Nelson
Looks like you replied to the wrong post user. I was in agreement about the (((myth))) being perpetuated that the economy is a pie and a zero-sum game.
Jackson Butler
Because I can guarantee you that none of those 3.6 billion are from the countries those eight men live in.

If we are going by wealth, first-worlders are the poorest people around since many have more negative net worth (debt) than whole third-world villages have in wealth.
