The Wuhan Red Death equity, income redistribution
Ever heard the expression, "follow the money?" Heard anyone talk about equity, income redistribution? Did you know that the largest transfer in wealth in the entirety of human history occured during the Covid-19 shutdown? In 2020, workers lost $3.7 million, while billionaires gained $3.9 trillion. (TRTWorld magazine, Jan 28, 2021)
And, while 8 million Americans dropped below the poverty line (WAPO, Dec 16, 2020), there were 493 people who became billionaires. (Forbes, Apirl 2021)
The biggest winners are, of course, the companies that were cheering on Dr. Fauci, and encouraging his draconian lockdowns and avidly supported the censorship of anyone willing to tell the truth about Covid: Big Tech, Big Data, Big Finance, Big Media, Big Corp giants (Murdoch, Bloomberg, Viacom, Disney) and, of course, our friends in Silicon Valley (Bezos, Gates, Zuckerberg, Dorsey) to name a few.
Gates had his hand in a lot of pies, including working with the CDC and the Gates-funded Johns Hopkins Center for Biosecurity to "achieve two years of digital transformation in two months." (Microsoft.com, May 2020). During the pandemic, his wealth rose by $22 billion. (Forbes, April 30, 2021)
Ellison, at Oracle, partnered with the CIA to build new cloud services, won the contract to process all the CDC vax data. His wealth alone increased by $34 million in 2020. (Forbes, April 30, 2021)
Of course, you never hear about these folks having to redistribute their income. It's only us middle class taxpayers who must do that.
And now, that makes me wonder if we should be looking at the people in federal, state and local governments and see how many of them might have gained in wealth during this time. Would we be surprised?
Oh, and one more thing: Of course none of the $ will ever be given back. Even though the lying, the intentional misinformation, the discrediting of respectable doctors, researchers and medical professionals worldwide and the outright censorship of the truth (of nearly everything covid-related) has now been exposed, it will matter not because it's all water under the proverbial bridge.
