Quoting: Ohio chic Billionaires, who now number a record 2,208, have more wealth than ever before, according to an Oxfam International report published Monday. Since the global financial crisis a decade ago, the number of billionaires has nearly doubled. The annual study was released ahead of the yearly World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, which brings together some of the wealthiest and most influential people on Earth. The 106-page report is meant to call attention to the growing gap between rich and poor. [link to www.google.com (secure)] that's commie talk. |

| AltSwede User ID: 77300577  Sweden01/22/2019 08:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why are those poor people making so many babies, babies they can't feed... why is no one talking about issues like that, like these poor people are always so innocent when many of them are not. "Oh I'm going to have all these babies, I live in this mudhut and can't even feed myself but damned if I'm not going to have a baby" Then these shits come to my country and mess it up. "But you can't hate on them, they're like poor and shit, so what if they come rape, steal and murder, they're poor people you're supposed to give them apartments and free living because f*** you!" Maybe they should stop doing that and wait until they can afford having children? Why are they not accountable for their own actions? Why do I have to pay for these people, I don't even like them. Go away, don't come here, you're not welcome. Get out! AltSwede |
| AltSwede User ID: 77300577 Sweden01/22/2019 08:31 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What do you suggest? They give their money away to make things more "even?". That sounds like a liberal/socialist type of deal. We should all make our own ways in the world....free handouts shouldn't be a thing. Because the trillions we've already plowed into all these shithole countries sure made a difference ;) AltSwede |

| Midwest Skeptic User ID: 9356577 United States01/22/2019 09:25 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The reason Billionaires even exist is because of private capital making the economy more efficient. Get rid of the rewards of Free Enterprise and 7 Billion people will be as poor as those 3.8 Billion ... ALL will be equally poor and society's long term economic advancing will turn into a full blown retreat with people becoming poorer and poorer. It wasn't government payments that brought more than 2 billion people out of abject poverty over the last 30 years. It was people to people commerce, with more and better jobs for literally BILLIONS of people (with those who pushed that economic expansion reaping part of the ADDITIONAL wealth that was created) Midwest Skeptic |

Fast forward 6 months -- the 3.8 billion poorest are back to being the 3.8 billion poorest, and the only consequence, is that the billionaires (many who were self made) now have little to nothing. Quoting: Lady Jane Smith Inject $750T into the pockets of the poor and let them pass it around forever. That is what a 'fix' looks like, the other plan is a band-aid for a missing limb or two. |
