Next year, they will probably just need the top 200 to accomplish that.
The fact that Zuckerberg whipped up a shitty PHP app to steal girls' phone numbers and is now one of the richest assholes on the planet is frustrating.
The fact that I helped it along for so many years by using Facebook even moreso.
I feel used.
Zuck did little for development. He stole Facebook and conned the other shareholders out of their share. Most tech billionaires have a similar story. They have rich parents and were investors.
It should simply not be legal anywhere to hold more money than you could possibly spend in your lifetime.
Similarly, much like there is a minimum wage (at least in the U.S.), there should be a maximum wage. And that would include stock options.
The middle class gets a wealth tax, but the top people don't. Freaking wealth tax above <whatever>. This current state of affairs is ridiculous.
Agreed. And I amend my statement. If rich people want to live the high life with all of their money in Tehran or Pyongyang and not have to worry about pesky old taxes, don't let me stop you. Most other places? Tax them at 99.99% at a certain level. All of their assets.
That's $1250 for every person in the world. Imagine what that could do for all the people living off $50/month.

I imagine they would taste like pharmaceuticals and dry sand. But maybe the fat would make them juicy, idk
Sounds like food poisoning
Would be a real pity if someone Luigi’d a few of them
Thoughts and prayers
Or all of them.
Should we make Guillotine Day a federal holiday?
Luigi Day
Ooh. I like it.
As an added perk, pushing for Luigi Day will probably land me fewer beatings with the banhammer, too!
I'm feeling pretty merry this holiday season.
Bless their hearts...
That money is well earned, I've heard billionaires work thousands of hours per day.
So Elon is basically 4% of the top five hundred’s wealth alone?
I wonder how much Putin or Saudi royalty are actually worth.
Worth? Nothing lol but they have lots of money
I bet they're delicious.
Only one way to find out
If they're that buttered up they must be willing to be eaten
Meat is back on the menu…
CBC has a fundraising drive for food banks every year. This year they raised around 2.3 million dollars.
So yeah.
Efficiency.
500 huh? Not a lot of people really. Even I could count backwards from 500 really easy...
The rich keep on getting richer and the poor poorer. At the same time, the middle class shrinks.
Ambition requires men to feed upon. It also needs time, direction, and sacrifice. But for every man who fulfills his calling, there are thousands left with nothing.
It's them who knock and open the door to Hell.
Thatsa lot of spicy meatballs
Nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care.
