^^^^^^^^^ THIS IS More evidence that the condition of the world is degrading. Making huge sums of money is immoral. The 62 wealthiest people in the world have as much wealth as the bottom 3.5 billion people. This is completely immoral and should be illegal. The mere fact that a person has billions of dollars is evidence that there is tyranny in the world. The paradox of capitalism is that the more a capitalist succeeds in reducing his costs (labor), the less money the mass of people will have to buy the very products by which a capitalist produces and thus cannot sell the products and services he is producing. It is bound to fail in time... and after it does, we will have to find a system which puts morality and love for one another at the center of its goals.
