        This is why Trump and @gop policies stink for average American. Too bad most people don’t understand this

        The rich get richer, the poor get poorer. That's the way it works. One thing I truly believe with the rich, and that is unless you win the lottery, you get rich by screwing other people, lying and cheating.

        The top three are Democrats. I thought the Democrats hated capitalism. Oh well, just goes to show that if it wasn't for double standards, the Democrats wouldn't have any at all.

        At least Bill Gates is using his wealth appropriately. Most rich Americans don't.

        How do you know that? You have no clue what they do with their money. Stop spreading hate,

        It's not spreading hate to recognize that wealth is shifting more and more to the wealthy class, a very destructive trend. The Gates foundation will eventually receive the vast majority of their wealth.

        If we give the 3 riches’ wealth to 16mil poorest Americans, each will have $1562 to spent & we have added 3 more poorest.

        And? Did they earn the money they have? Yes, so good for them. They accomplished things in life

        These numbers are useless. The poorest 160 mil Americans have $250bil, ie avg $1562pp. Better num is to count how much each spent.

        So? Yet you fail to report the billions, that are given to the poorest half of the USA population & taxes paid/given by the 1%, why is that?

        This is a global issue which has a sad ending. The whole system is set up for all the money to end up in the richest people’s hands. “Money makes money” is true. Rich get interest, poor pay it and wealth accumulation accelerates exponentially. Interesting times.
