How many billions have escaped poverty because of the tools and products built by Apple, Microsoft, and other companies? Smart phone apps are an example of a brand new industry that has helped hundreds of millions. Zero. In fact, make that a negative number. Smart phone apps have enabled the gig economy which has only served to undercut wages and make people poorer. Taxi drivers are committing suicide because they can't compete with the flood of desperate uber and lyft drivers who themselves are barely making money (if any) after maintenance costs and fuel. You drank the kool-aid too hard. In fact, you've dunked your entire fucking head in it. Stop lapping up the bullshit that the rich spew. They are actively making the world a worse place. Taxi companies are monopolies. Uber is not all good in itself but the reason they disrupted the taxis is because of how entrenched they were in the first place. You are really uncharitable and unpleasant to speak with so I'm just going to stop responding. Hard to take seriously the idea that NO people benefited from personal computers, smart phones, apps, the platforms that enabled new services and products, and the like. Just not a data driven idea. <cite>OnWingsOfMisery posted [p:928712622] in billionair...

Their billions are in shares of their companies and other assets that are not liquid. Your example is very ignorant to basic wealth building principles and doesn't actually show anything important. In order to have a billion, you need to build and invest into things that go up in value. I could come up with a similarly ridiculous example like yours using someone who earns $1 a day and how they'll never get to a million dollars, but no one engaging in good faith would accept that this example is good commentary.

cerealbox760 10/13/19 1:52:52 PM #109:	Americans are far wealthier than most of the world. Wealth innequality between South America and the USA is unfair and we should tax EVERY American 80% and give it all to starving families who DONT have electricity, roads, water, basic education, transportation, internet, to all of South America. That'll teach Americans to NOT get loans and mortgages that inflate the prices of everything. Its ridiculous the world doesnt invade America to grab all their wealth and iPhones. I wonder what's holding back the world. Hell, if I were Kim Kardashian, I would rob kylie jenner. Kim Kardashian and her net worth is at $300 million Kylie Jenner and her net worth is at $1000 million aka a billy. Average American: <1 million, 1<300<1000 Wealth innequality between Kim and Kylie is so rediculous. Kim is closer to us in wealth than she is to kylie. Kim Kardashian is basically broke. Joking aside, the real wealth grabbers are not billionaires. Boomers are the greatest wealth grabbing hogs in all American history. They voted themselves all the benefits and made younger generations pay for it. Politicans pander to them because boomers outnumber other groups of voters. They voted for cuts in education and infrastructure to fund healthcare. They voted themselves unreasonable amounts pension benefits that will collapse because millennials are so broke. Boomers are notoriously nimby activists because they own most of the real estate and they benefit by ripping off youngsters on rent. Social secuirty so mismanaged because boomer voters vote off any politican who tries updating it. Social secuirty will collapse long before millennials get to enjoy its benefits and its evil considering how much millennial contribute to social secuirty. Is it moral to spend money on credit and have your grandkids go bankrupt for it? Because this is exactly what Americans are doing. People who blame billionaires are blaming the wrong villain. Bernie (and Trump) are doing a good job misleading everyone. Typical boomer behavior. Socialism for the boomers and crony capitalism for millennials, gen x, and zoomers. <cite>cerealbox760 posted [p:928713359] in billionair...

Theres a mighty fine difference being born into wealth and having the luxury to blow loads of cash, make mistakes, and just throw money at your mistakes/problems, to succeed. To someone who started actually broke, who worked their ass off to not make any mistakes, as any mistake would actually devastate them, and the company as poor people cant just throw money at their problems.

MutantJohn 10/13/19 4:08:30 PM #114:	Broseph_Stalin posted... imagine thinking wealth creation is a zero-sum game in 2019. This is kind of true. A lot of "wealth" is actually a hypothetical value. Most people own things estimated to be worth X at a given point in time. It doesn't really mean much until they exchange it for actual cash. And that's part of a healthy economy, imo. People shouldn't just horde assets for the sake of wealth. --- "Oh, my mother; oh, my friends, ask the angels, will I ever see heaven again?" - Laura Marling <cite>MutantJohn posted [p:928718744] in billionair...
