The top three biggest threats to humanity....

RE: The top three biggest threats to humanity....
(November 2, 2014 at 5:18 am)Chuck Wrote: Those who argue the modern wealth disparity is unprecedented should consider that some historian estimated the richest private citizen in world's history was Marcus Lucinius Crassus, one of Julius Caesar's colleagues in the first triumvirate. He was calculated to own 1/12 of the total wealth of the entire world. In today's terms he would be worth 5 trillion dollars, or ~70 times richer than the richest man in the world today.
Total world wealth is 300 trillion(mostly in real estate) not 60 trillion.
