I'm not sure that's actually all that relevant. Political power and social class are much more determined by the wealth distribution within a society than they are by the worldwide wealth distribution.
- parineum 11mo agoPolitical power and social class don't feed hungry people.
- aeternum 11mo agoOvereating now kills more people than hunger, it just flipped somewhat recently.
- s1mplicissimus 11mo agoYet both can be at alarmingly high rates at the same time, it's not like one cancels the other out
- renewiltord 11mo agoThis story is literally about global wealth.
- imtringued 11mo agoAnd you talked about income, not wealth. The problem is that your comment is simply not relevant.
- Libidinalecon 11mo agoThe responses to your post just prove the point. It is always someone else that is greedy. My American friends and I? It doesn't make sense. We are just trying to get by!
- Lutger 11mo agoIt is and it isn't. Relative wealth within society has consequences regardless of absolute wealth. But globally power is absolutely shaped by wealth distribution as well, as wealth distribution is influenced by power relations too.
