I agree, saying sorry isn't enough, We need action on #Inquality. Slave owners made huge amounts of money from the slave trade, modern billionares make their billions off the backs of users, some of whom can't put a decent meal in from of them.
With a world population of between 7 and 8 billion people, having a small number being worth over 100 billion is really grotesque.
In both cases slave owners & billionaries have set up instiutions to help people (e.g schools), however if we redistrubute this modern weatlth then everyone will have access to healthcare and education, the basic building blocks to give people a real chance.
“A tax of up to 5 percent on the world’s multi-millionaires and billionaires could raise $1.7 trillion a year, enough to lift 2 billion people out of poverty.”

We always wondered whether #gatedCommunities were a good solution to #extremeInequality and #gentrification.
