Summary
Oxfam’s 2024 inequality report revealed a record $2 trillion increase in billionaire wealth, reaching $15 trillion, while global poverty rates remain stagnant.
The top 1% own 45% of all wealth, and 44% of people live on less than $6.85 daily.
Oxfam predicts five trillionaires within a decade, citing inheritance and cronyism as key wealth drivers. Elon Musk may become the first trillionaire by 2027.
Oxfam calls for tax reform, monopoly regulation, and income redistribution to address inequality.
Critics warn unchecked wealth concentration threatens democracy and economic fairness.
If this is true, why then do they need to buy super ultra giant mega-yachts, private jets, mansions, islands, etc?
If you are worried about running out of money, you should be living a very meager and humble life. Is that what their therapist tells them, as part of their therapy?
I think they are more worried about running out of asshole.
