RE: Why Does Poverty Exist?

in #life7 years ago

Such a sad state of affairs this world has become when so few have so much. It's believed that between 147 corporations control 40% of the global economy and further postulated that as few as 4 companies control the 147. Further it's concluded that between 737 corporations control 80% of the worlds profits. Linked below is the article with these stats.

Plenty of reasons the world has poverty. The interlocked power structure at the top doesn't like to share.

Yep, I saw this study a number of years ago and while I intended to blog about it I haven't as of yet, but maybe someone else will?

I believe that it confirms what we already know - that a select (and hidden group of men) control almost everything.

Thank you for posting this in the comments. You have added value and that is important. Others will read it and run with it.

Thank you for the kind words. I think I will have a go at it later today. Good idea to make it into a full post.

Yes, it is a great idea to share this knowledge. Few people know this and it's important that they do.

This topic is very important. I'm now following you!

I had followed you earlier. I'll let you know when I post. (assuming I deem it any good). I'm currently in research mode.
