DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) -- The gap between the super-rich and the poorest half of the global population is starker than previously thought, with just eight men, from Bill Gates to Michael Bloomberg, owning as much wealth as 3.6 billion people, according to an analysis by Oxfam released Monday.

Here's the list:

Oxfam used Forbes' billionaires list that was last published in March 2016 to make its headline claim. According to the Forbes list, Microsoft founder Gates is the richest individual with a net worth of $75 billion. The others, in order of ranking, are Amancio Ortega, the Spanish founder of fashion house Inditex, financier Warren Buffett, Mexican business magnate Carlos Slim Helu, Amazon boss Jeff Bezos, Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg, Oracle's Larry Ellison and Bloomberg, the former mayor of New York.

Not exactly a Who's Who of hardcore right wing ideologues. Looks like we need to do some serious wealth redistribution. :p

You're just jealous. If you want money, get off the couch, move out of your Moms basement and get a job, loser.

That wooshing sound you're hearing is the wind whistling through those empty spaces between your ears, Mike. You should really do a modicum of work before displaying your petulant ignorance for all to see.

The Gates Foundation - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_%...tes_Foundation

It appears to me that liberals have the creativity and ingenuity necessary to succeed in the modern-day economy and build some of the world's biggest businesses with the power of their brains and not daddy's wealth. Good for them.

The Giving Pledge is a commitment by the world's wealthiest individuals and families to dedicate the majority of their wealth to philanthropy.

CURRENT PLEDGERS I am willing to bet that there are more liberals here than conservatives. Guess whose name is missing? ;)

Let's see;

After all of these years of Conservatives going on about how lazy and dependent Liberals are, now they whine about the wealth and success that Liberals have accrued? All the while taking up the mantle of people who'd rather waste their lives sitting on a barstool, bitching that they want the government to give them their lousy coal jobs back rather than get some fucking ambition and lift themselves up?

My, how the roles have changed.

That's because philanthropy for that asshole is just a tax shelter scheme and a way to make rubes think he gives a shit about the troops. (Ref. Wounded Warriors sham.)

It's even worse than that. His charitable foundation was a method by which to collect money from other people and then buy goodies to display at Mar a Lago, including a painting of himself. He defines grifter and charlatan (and is illegal under "self-dealing" provisions of such foundations).

In the face of an investigation of his "charitable" foundation by the New York AG, Trump is trying to dissolve the foundation. However, the judge is making him keep it open (though it is not allowed to solicit any more funds) until the investigation is completed.

The Trump Foundation spent $30,000 to buy two large portraits of Trump himself, including one that was hung up in the sports bar at a Trump-owned resort. Trump also appears to use $258,000 of his foundation’s money — legally earmarked for charitable purposes — to settle lawsuits involving two of his for-profit clubs.
In addition, the Trump foundation gave a $25,000 gift to a campaign committee backing Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi (R) even though nonprofits like the charity are not allowed to give political gifts.

My, my, still ranting on the coal people.

So having a Democrat in the Oval office is good for the economy. Nothing new here, the Reps will just tank it leaving yet another mess for the Democrats to cleanup again!
