Owners, rules of the world, top 2 % own 50%. Top 1% own 40%. Situation getting only worse. Feudalism, slavery, wars.

2% of adults in the world own more than half of global household wealth.

the richest 10% of adults accounted for 85% of the world total.

In contrast, the bottom half, 50% of the world adult population owned barely 1% of global wealth.

Medieval feudalism, cancer of humanity, robbery, slavery, wars, exploitation.

Capitalist sicknes of extreme wealth concentrations. Not democractic. Plutooligarchy.

In our now post-industrial age that has turned people into disposable assets, mere tools at the service of capital, it is breathtakingly hopeful to experience business that chooses to honor the essence of humanity over the accumulation of wealth in service of capital.

rich keep getting richer to the astounding point that America now ranks as a less equal country than Egypt and Tunisia.

According to the CIA's World Fact Book, which ranks countries in terms of how "equally" wealth is distributed, the US is the 42nd most unequal country in the world

in Great Britain, one million people from the ages of 16 to 24 are officially unemployed, the most since the deep recession of the mid-1980s
