These points are being purported/contested here:
"There is nothing worth celebrating about a world where inequality is so extreme that 58% of people are in poverty, while a few dozen billionaires have more than all of their wealth combined"
- ranie93 7y agoThey're not, but its fine to read between the lines. The letter makes no allusions to seizing wealth or stating that immense wealth hasn't been created.
- bhupy 7y agoMy point is that the more useful description of the problem is: “There is nothing worth celebrating about a world where 58% of people are in poverty”. The “inequality” and the presence of billionaires is a distraction from the real problem: poverty.
