$698B is almost 2% of America’s GDP. Not the federal budget, the entire GDP.
It’s also close to the annual discretionary spending on the military.
What is even the point in doing this? Like:
“I want to buy the most ludicrous, ostentatious watch to show off my wealth”As far as I can tell that’s this fuckin’ thing that looks like it came out of gachapon machine
Ok, that’s $60 million, go buy 1,000 of them and enjoy your sparkling realization of how utterly unfulfilled you are*11,633
Off by a factor of 10 still
Top 10 billionaires make as much as 11 million median wage ($60k/yr) workers.
Ah, I was thinking per billionaire, but thanks for doing the actual math as well as providing the much more relevant data to fume about
Oohhhh that makes sense
What’s wild is there are people defending this. Not just in the USA either.
their wealth GREW in one year alone enough to feed all those hungry people for life
somehow we are supposed to believe thats not violence or theft
ah we truly are redoing the roaring twenties
Bow to the job creators the prophets of the holy market. /s
