  • According to a Google search, cnbc states, there is 280 trillion dollars of wealth in the world. The world.

    There are 7.53 billion people in the world as of 2017.

    280 trillion ÷ 7.53 billion = 36363.6363636.

    Let's just give everyone 36k and start over.

    But that's it. This is your one chance. Can you make it on that for the rest of your life??

    Can you???

    • Finally something we can agree on. I 100% support your assertion that the only two possible choices are the richest 1% of the population having 50% of the wealth and the poorest 50% of the population having 1% of the wealth...or everybody having the exact same amount of money. There’s literally nothing in between.

        • Your reductio ad absurdum argument that the only way to improve in the current economic system is the most extreme other end possible. I agree with you that there’s absolutely no possible way to find something in between that’s more fair for everybody.

          • I love that you took the time to study logic. I reduced it to the absurd to show you in basic concepts that there is NO possible way to do what she promises. Keep on studying logic.

    • Don't go down that railroad and assume wealth just exists and isn't created.

      • I am being facicious to prove a point to this person that there isn't all these riches for the taking from other people.

        If we actually divided it up as I stated above, most people would be broke again in less than a year.

        Keep in mind, to actually implement that would mean no one would have a job either.
