The world's richest are getting richer while the wealth of the poorest is being spread more thinly
***
Independent 2016.01.17
Wealth inequality has grown to the stage where 62 of the world’s richest people own as much as the poorest half of humanity combined, according to a new report.
***
The research, conducted by the charity Oxfam, found that the wealth of the poorest half of the world’s population – 3.6 billion people – has fallen by 41 per cent, or a trillion US dollars, since 2010.
While this group has become poorer, the wealth of the richest 62 people on the planet has increased by more than half a trillion dollars to $1.76 trillion.
The report, “An Economy for the 1%”, says the gap between the global richest and the global poorest has widened in just the last 12 months.
- In 2011 388 people had the same wealth as the poorest half of humanity.
- In 2011 this fell to 177.
- The number has continued to fall each year to 80 in 2014 and 62 in 2015.
The research was released days ahead of the annual gathering of the world’s elite in Davos for the World Economic Forum 2016.
Oxfam GB chief executive Mark Goldring said a crackdown on global tax havens was a necessary step towards ending the rampant global inequality.
“It is simply unacceptable that the poorest half of the world population owns no more than a small group of the global super-rich – so few, you could fit them all on a single coach,” he said. [...]

Oxfam Finds:
Global Poverty Is Soaring
Global Poverty Is Soaring
2016-01-19 washingtonsblog
[...] However, as I have previously indicated, the wealth of King Saud, whom neither Forbes nor Bloomberg even count because they don’t count the wealth of kings, has always exceeded $1 trillion and was around $15 trillion when oil was at $100/barrel (under the prior King).
Furthermore, neither Forbes nor Bloomberg has access to information on hidden wealth, offshore in tax havens and often under layers of shell companies, which also are entirely privately controlled.
- Consequently, Oxfam’s calculations are based upon data that grossly underestimate, or even ignore entirely (such as with King Saud), the wealth of the actually-wealthiest people.
What the world has is an astronomical scam-operation. However, even applying the defective data on the basis of which Oxfam was calculating, Oxfam can say this:
“The global inequality crisis is reaching new extremes.
The richest 1% now have more wealth than the rest of the world combined. Power and privilege is being used to skew the economic system to increase the gap between the richest and the rest.
A global network of tax havens further enables the richest individuals to hide $7.6 trillion.”
In other words: Oxfam is saying that the wealth of the 62 richest people is $1.8 trillion, but that there exists in “tax havens” another $7.6 trillion, which cannot be attributed to any of those 62 nor to anyone, because its ownership is hidden.
- Whatever the inequality-problem is, it’s vastly more extreme than the official figures show. [...]

- Man kan således slå fast att 85 stycken extremt rika människor - äger lika mycket som hälften av alla människor som idag finns på planeten jorden.
Att 3,5 miljarder människor någonsin skulle kunna samarbeta mot ett givet mål kommer sannolikt aldrig att ske när elitens globala trygghetsövervakning nu finns på plats för att motverka och med alla medel slå ner ett sådant skeende.
Däremot är sannolikheten väldigt stor att 85 giriga människor med samma intressen klarar av ett samarbete för att skapa ännu större klyftor mellan fattiga och rika.
Mainstream skulle säkert kalla en sådan djärv spekulation för "konspirationsteori", men ""presstituten" i media gör bara sitt arbete, vilket är att desinformera, förvirra och skrämma allmänheten. (*terror+muslimer)
- Om det vore på något annat sätt så hade media säkert dagligen informerat världen om hur destruktivt för människosläktet och världssamfundet en sådan här fördelning av tillgångar är..?
- Om man samlar förmögenheterna från världens 1 procent rikaste personer, så har de 65 gånger de tillgångar som hälften av jordens befolkning har, d v s de har 65 gånger mer rikedom än 3,5 miljarder människor sammanlagt har att röra sig med.
I motsats till vad media vanligtvis berättar i sina medvetet fragmenterade nyheter, så har avståndet mellan rika ock fattiga ökat lavinartat i världen under många år.
Under de senaste åren har många av de mest extremt rika i världen fördubblat sina förmögenheter...

Obscene wealth:
World’s 85 richest have same wealth as 3.5 billion poorest – Oxfam
RT 2014-01.20
The world’s 85 wealthiest people have as much money as the 3.5 billion poorest people on the planet – half the Earth’s population. That’s according to Oxfam’s latest report on the risks of the widening gap between the super-rich and the poor.
The report, titled “Working for the Few,” was released Monday, and was compiled by Oxfam – an international organization looking for solutions against poverty and injustice.
The document focuses on the extent of global economic inequality caused by rapidly increasing wealth of the richest people that poses the threat to the “human progress.”
A total of 210 people became billionaires last year, joining the existing 1,426 billionaires with a combined net worth of $5.4 trillion.
"Instead of moving forward together, people are increasingly separated by economic and political power, inevitably heightening social tensions and increasing the risk of societal breakdown," the report stated.
Also, according to the Oxfam data, the richest 1 percent of people across the globe have $110 trillion, or 65 times the total wealth of the bottom half of the planet’s population – which effectively “presents significant threat to inclusive political and economic systems.”
“- It is staggering that, in the 21st century, half of the world’s population — that’s three and a half billion people — own no more than a tiny elite whose numbers could all fit comfortably on a double-decker bus,” Oxfam chief executive Winnie Byanyima told a news conference.
And the number of the rich is steadily growing: for example, in India the number of billionaires skyrocketed from six to 61 in the past 10 years, and their combined net worth is currently $250 billion.
The report comes ahead of the World Economic Forum in Davos which begins later this week, and urges the world leaders to discuss how to tackle this pressing issue.
Among the solutions presented by Oxfam are measures to avoid tax dodging and using economic wealth to pressure governments, looking for political benefits. Also, the organization calls for “making public all the investments in companies and trusts for which they are the ultimate beneficial owners,” as well as “challenging governments to use tax revenue to provide universal healthcare, education and social protection for citizens.”
- Oxfam also said that there are many laws that favor the rich, which were lobbied for in a “power grab” by the world’s wealthiest people.
Since the late 1970s, tax rates for the richest have fallen in 29 out of 30 countries for which data are available, according to Oxfam.
"A survey in six countries (the US, UK, Spain, Brazil, India and South Africa) showed that a majority of people believe that laws are skewed in favor of the rich," the report said.
For instance, almost 80 percent of the Spanish and the Indians, as well as over 60 per cent of the US and the UK residents, either agree or strongly agree that “the rich have too much influence over where this country is headed.”

'Journalism is printing what someone else does NOT want printed: - Everything else is public relations.'
--US criminal oligarchy: top 20 Americans own more than bottom 50%, 0.1% own more than 90%; ~$30 TRILLION stored in ‘tax havens’--
SvaraRaderaUS “leaders” in government, banking/finance, and media are obvious criminals that should be legally stopped by arrests for the following Emperor’s New Clothesobvious crimes:
Unlawful and lie-began wars.
Crimes Against Humanity for ongoing intentional policy of poverty that’s killed over 400 million human beings just since 1995 (~75% children; more deaths than from all wars in Earth’s recorded history).
So-called “money” that is actually debt that creates accelerating and unpayable total debt. The .01% hide ~$30 trillion in tax havens while demanding public austerity.
Destruction of nearly all rights lawfully guaranteed in the US Bill of Rights within the US Constitution, and in Orwellian inversion of limited government.
“Covering the crimes” with lies by corporate media.
These crimes annually cost millions killed, billions harmed, and trillions looted, with recent history continuing literal centuries of US lie-began Wars of Aggression that involved nearly all families in two horrific global wars for colonial empire.
We can add the following economic data for public demand of arrests:
We’ve already documented how the global so-called “elite” 1% are now wealthier than the 99% while ~30,000 children die daily from preventable poverty in gruesomely-slow agony.
The US .1% own more than the bottom 90%.
The top 20 Americans (.000006%) own more than the bottom 50%.
But wait, there’s more:
