These 8 men own as much wealth as half of the world's population - the poor half. murchr wrote: Sixty-two richest people control the same wealth as that of half the world’s population, global charity Oxfam has said. According to a study released ahead of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the world has reached alarming levels of inequality where the 62 have the same wealth as 3.6 billion people.

Come on, that's not a good comparison. When we say that Bill Gates is worth $70 billion, it's not that he has $70 billion in the bank. Meanwhile, when we talk of the poorest people, we talk of their daily earnings, i.e their cash value. There is economic inequality, but let's not be super alarmist about it and lose credibility.
