The richest 400 Americans, all of whom are billionaires, are hoarding as much concentrated wealth as 150 million Americans combined. Here is the list:

Let's take a closer look at the top ten:
1. Bill Gates: think about all of the people working in all of the industries that helped make Bill Gates rich, all of the people who built, shipped, and sold the products that made him rich, think about how many of those people were underpaid while Bill Gates amassed his outrageous fortune. It's wrong.
2. Warren Buffet: this guy never created anything, never had an idea, never contributed anything to the world, he has just played Monopoly his entire life.
3. Larry Ellison: same argument as Bill Gates, distribute the wealth more fairly by paying people fair wages.
4 & 5. Charles and David Koch: took over Daddy's business, underpay their employees and exploit their wealth and influence to rig the system in their favor. Despicable people who earned nothing, ever.
6. Christy Walton: inherited an inheritance when her husband crashed his own plane, ludicrous wealth gained off of the backs of all the underpaid employees, not only employees of Walmart but all of the various industries that contribute to Walmart's operations. Earned nothing, ever.
7. George Soros: same as Buffet, never created anything, contributes nothing, plays Monopoly.
8. Sheldon Adelson: this rich fuck owns casinos, contributes nothing worthwhile to society, essentially a parasite.
9. Jim Walton: ludicrous wealth gained off of the backs of all the underpaid employees, not only employees of Walmart but all of the various industries that contribute to Walmart operations. Earned nothing, ever.
10. Alice Walton: ludicrous wealth gained off of the backs of all the underpaid employees, not only employees of Walmart but all of the various industries that contribute to Walmart operations. Earned nothing, ever.
These people are money hoarders. Half of them inherited the businesses that keep them ludicrously wealthy. Together they are hoarding 291 billion dollars.
