The exact percentage is exactly critical informarion.
Imagine, for the sake of argument, that the 10% own 100% of all net worth. Imagine net worth of 90% of the population is exactly at zero. Do you think democracy would still function, liberty would survive?
The folks at zero would be closer to slaves than to anything we recognise today.

- WalterBright 3y agoA considerable part of the wealth of slaveowners was the value of their slaves. Slaves were traded for a lot of money. That means, economically speaking, if you own yourself you have that wealth.
