Stanford? why not Cal Berkley ? you have got to be messing with me.
It is a 2011 article with some 2004 data. It is from Stanford. It is from the Stanford Inequality and Poverty Center?
If this data and report were current and it wasn't from Stanford, I see no evidence that wanna be millionaires are less concerned with growing inequalities as you stated in agreement with OB.
Now you are being irrational, most folks are wannabe millionaires at heart, and still manage to concern themselves with growing inequalities. There is a radical difference between such folks and wannabe billionaires.
The latter have been it a position to actually do something about the growing inequalities and instead prefer to increase their wealth. It strikes me, as a "
pull up the ladder, Jack, I'm in!" mentality. Not convinced by the actions of Zuckerberg nor Mr. Apple, such fondations strike me as tax-dodges more than a genuine intention to end World poverty
Those who reached a thousand Million First, realised they would never make $#000,000,000,0000 in this lifetime and so lowered the bar, so to speak. Calling 1,000million a billion has not eased their longing for more, it would appear. I googled an answer to you request for two examples, if Cal Berkeley had shown up I would happily have posted their study. Should you find a link for the Cal Berkeley Inequality and Poverty Center, i would be delighted.
