No desire to be a billionaire.

The meaningful redistribution of wealth won’t come. Because the rich don’t want it to come. Or so I suspect. I’m told that 85 billionaires control more wealth than the poorest 3.5 billion people of the world. Can’t say that’s good or bad. But it doesn’t seem right. I’m assuming the statistic is true. That it’s reality. And there isn’t much I can do about it. So I better get on with my life. And wonder. Am I one of the 3.5 billion poorest people? If so, I gotta admit, I’m happy.  And I have no desire to be a billionaire. –Jim Broede
