Finally: List of 80 People With as Much Money as 1/2 of Humanity

[angrychair]

13. "taking every penny"

Really isnt the objective or point in this type of conversation and it is intellectually dishonest to suggest that it is.
The point is that the money is being used for purely personal gain and not enough is going back into the system to increase standards of living for the lower 50% of income earners or improve economic stability and performance or for technological research and development for improvements to our SoL, infrastructure and environment without a focus on profits.
The problem is about the utility of the money, not the quantity.
You may argue that many on that list have huge philanthropic foundations and give to charity but that is not the same thing. The intention should be to have as broad an impact as possible. A rising tide lifts all ships.
