DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) — The world could have its first trillionaire within a decade, anti-poverty organization Oxfam International said Monday in its annual assessment of global inequalities timed to the gathering of political and business elites at the Swiss ski resort of Davos.
The idea that one person could generate enough benefit to mankind in a year that they have fairly earned a billion dollars is ludicrous. The existence of billionaires is self-evident proof that the system is broken. It’s impossible for one person to have that through means other than denying other people their fair share.
That being the case, no one under the age of 1000 at least should ever be worth a trillion dollars.
We should dip the first one in gold and put him on display as a warning.
