That a tiny group of men owned the majority of the planet's wealth is something that I knew, but to see it in a graphic with the actual percentages is pretty shocking, and I didn't think that I could be shocked at this point. And that's just monetary wealth, no? If we attempted to add in their control over other resources beyond fiat money, I suspect that the graph would be even uglier. My focus as an anarchist tends to stay within the home, showing people how they can take small steps in their everyday life to achieve a bit more liberty, with my argument being that if people controlled their own wealth better, then they can better control how it's distributed. The changes are infinitesimal compared to the power that billionaires and big government wields, but it's something. In the end I suspect that the awareness itself will bring the biggest returns in the long run.
I have a lot of respect for what you're trying to do and how you're working to raise awareness of this massive problem AND take action to help out however you can. Following so that I don't miss future posts!
Great comment and you are right - awareness is key. I believe that is 1st base. If you aren't aware then you don't know!
Thank you for following me. I really appreciate it!
