HistoryIsComplex Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) This is a 2 year old Pre-COVID article. But the 2030 and 2/3rds of all Wealth is very telling, no? https://www.theguardian.com/business/2018/apr/07/global-inequality-tipping-point-2030 Quote Since 2008, the wealth of the richest 1% has been growing at an average of 6% a year – much faster than the 3% growth in wealth of the remaining 99% of the world’s population. Should that continue, the top 1% would hold wealth equating to $305tn (£216.5tn) – up from $140tn today. "216 Trillion Pounds" IS 6-6-6 -> 6 x 6 x 6 = 216.

Smokestack Lightnin' Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 The distrust and anger is already here with the lengthy riots in France and Hong Kong. Once the food shortages hit, this will give governments the reason they need to start shooting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HistoryIsComplex Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 The current political parties in government will be veeeery lucky if they can win another election... in the next 10 to 15 years or so. There's a deeeaaadly virus, right? And its coming from China by airplane, right? And you should really close the air bridges and borders down, right? None of the elected officials in dozens of countries lifted a finger to keep the public safe. Now they are unelectable. Karma is a bitch, isn't it?
