The wealthy don't add up to a billion. If you include millionaires, they only add up to something like half a billion. It's the only demographic that actively tries to shrink itself, by further concentrating wealth. The top 2000 billionaires on the planet have so much wealth they could end poverty all over the world SEVEN TIMES.

THEY CAN END GLOBAL POVERTY SEVEN TIMES OVER AND THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN DOING SO.

I can't think of a better anti-rich fact than that.

Not just the wealthy.. there are a billion just plain fucked up people to enable them. Not talking about your average dickhead that may live next door, The really truly evil fucks that go way out of their way to make our lives messed up

Never gonna happen, too many people are assholes and they enjoy being assholes and they DGAF about anyone else. And I bet they are all related, maybe a few generations back, but they will be connected, for sure.

"Imagine all the people..." this is what you get. Shitty politicians and warmongering for 10 trillionaires. Imagine if it was just one planet? India and china rules them all, brown (muslim) and black people in the same spot, spanish speaking? We got you, theres a taco cart for you! Cmon.

I've seen Apple TV's Pluribus and can imagine, but it's an extreme concept of what you're asking which might be terrifying.

one theory is that 'rich people' aka the 1% arent humans, think "They' Live(movie), as they tend to lack their humanity arent too humane and seem to enjoy making poor people suffer.... 'they' walk Among Us(videogame)?

But then how would we know who wone at life? Obviously the number of commas in your bank account is the best way to determine who the best human is! What else would you use? Philanthropy? Kindness? Raising the overall level of security and happiness and in humanity as a whole and helping us emerge into a golden era that would lead us to a future not unlike the federation from star treck? No! It's obviously all about the commas!

ONE person could make their way well through the list of the top 100 richest men on earth, before dying.

We can ALL do more than we think. If we ALL banded together, the entire ruling class and everyone who would succeed them would be dead within months.

We could probably built an antenna the size of Africa and sent a sequence of RNA codons into the universe so that other extraterrestrial civilizations can also work together like we did. Imagine! 😜
