Oxfam: "Billionaires Made Two Trillion Dollars in 2024"

The wealth of each of the richest ten men has grown by almost US$100 million a day in 2024 on average. Even if you saved $1,000 daily since the first humans 315,000 years ago, you still would not have as much money as one of the richest ten billionaires. If any of the richest ten billionaires lost 99% of their wealth, they'd still be a billionaire.

Poverty, hunger and homelessness exist not because we cannot help the poor, but rather because we cannot satiate the rich.

That's the funny part. Does anybody really think the president and his policies made this happen?

I suppose they do.

But they're dumb
