If you press the button, the top 1% of income earners in the entire world have 99% of their wealth spread to the other 99% world population, distributed proportionately according to need.
Do you press the button?

This isn't about billionaires, or even millionaires for those of you who are unaware. $744,000 in combined assets puts you in the top 1%. Basically if you own a home in any major NA city, say goodbye to your house.

Great poll. You have a knack for these. Would be a really interesting to somehow segregate votes by the percentile of the voters.

Sure; this isn't really the point of the question though. I meant it as a general sense that people starving in Africa get more money than someone in Germany with a stable job and an apartment.

Interesting that it's the top 1% of income earners having their wealth expropriated and not the top 1% of wealth holders. A recent Harvard Law graduate with a high income and high debt might get his debt redistributed to Ugandan farmers.

Most of the "1%"s money is bound up in assets (buildings, vehicles, warehouses, product, technological patents, etc). Pressing "yes" would literally destroy the world economy.
So, no thanks.
