We live in a dysgenic society. $223 trillion of our world’s wealth is not in your wallet, is it? What’s up with the wealth gap anyhow?

Our monetary system is run for bankers, by bankers. Our health-care system is run by pharmaceutical companies and insurance companies for their own gain. Billionaires at the top of biotech and agricultural corporations, given ‘personhood’, dictate our food supply, and our energy supply is held hostage by equal maniacal greed. The ‘military’ – well that system isn’t in place to protect you and I, the average citizen, it is in place to protect the banks, the pharmaceutical companies and the corporations. The politicians – they aren’t in their positions to be ‘the voice of the people’ – they are there to act with herd-like mentality, propping up the centralist agenda, and to go home to bed thinking they are safe from the trajectory of their ill-imagined actions. This society allows for a huge displacement of wealth, and the stealing of resources from every conceivable area to form a massive load of debt – one so huge it enslaves us for decades, if not centuries to come to the elite class.

If you think that billionaire robber barons had all the cash - just wait. Think one million times one million to equal true wealth disparity.

Even John D. Rockefeller, the richest American ever, saw his wealth peak in 1913 at around $900 million, or 2.5% of the country's GDP that year. The disparity between the have’s and have-nots is becoming lost in our mental capacity to digest such staggering numbers. Are you even sure how many millions are in a trillion? Most Americans don’t know. Whether it is money they have or don’t have- it’s a confounding numerical value.

1. Another exerpt ...

This society – our society, according to a recent Credit Suisse annual Global Wealth Report will create 11 trillionaires in the next decade. The report also states that global wealth has more than doubled in the past ten years – so where did all the money go? The 1% really hold all the wealth, but it isn’t just affecting the US. The planet as a whole is suffering from this inequality.

When one is so wealthy the only thing left to buy is government, one it too wealthy.

Trillionares - like they work a trillion times harder and better than the rest of us.

Don't know how you can forget it - it is constantly being mentioned by them!
