        @mflynny @WSJ so the plan is to just let the poorest die of starvation then? What about compassion for fellow humans? Sad that $ > lives.

        @WSJ @ArifAlvi. Most probably they are the ones feeding the less than half of the world by generating jobs and opportunities for growth.

        @_Sharaf @WSJ Maybe they should own all the wealth, and then they can feed the rest? Even IMF & Oxfam are against this lopsided situation

        @ArifAlvi @WSJ. If you scare the rich by making anti-rich policies, the capital will fly off to other countries and stock markets will fall
