亿万富翁占领世界


评论翻译
The world's richest 1% own 43% of global financial assets, and the wealth of the top five billionaires has doubled since 2020, while 60% of humanity got poorer, according to a report by Oxfam, published to coincide with the World Economic Forum meeting of capitalist oligarchs and Western government officials in Davos, Switzerland. Ben Norton analyzes the findings.

乐施会的一份报告显示,世界上最富有的1%的人拥有全球金融资产的43%,自2020年以来,排名前五的亿万富翁的财富翻了一番,而60%的人却变得更加贫穷。本-诺顿对报告结果进行了分析。

While I do not endorse ridiculous CEO salaries and bonuses, one thing needs to be said straight. Those CEOs could be, in a way, likened to gold (rare, scarce, short in supply). Whereas the ordinary workers are more like iron (relatively abundant). One might argue, that iron is more useful than gold. However, the relative scarcity of gold makes it expensive. And no amount of iron can replace gold in some critical applications - which is the case of CEOs, too.
One way to decrease CEO salaries would be raising more leaders in a society. Sadly, quality leaders and leadership are extremely rare, and the best leaders are not even those with the highest salaries (those tend to be the most unscrupulous ones these days).
It's a supply and demand problem, which can't be solved by capping the price of gold. Only by mining more of it for cheaper.

虽然我并不赞成CEO们荒唐的薪水和奖金,但有一点必须直说。在某种程度上,这些首席执行官可以比作黄金(稀有、稀缺、供不应求),而普通工人更像是钢铁(相对充足)。也许有人会说,钢铁比黄金更有用。然而,黄金的相对稀缺性使其价格昂贵。在某些关键应用领域,再多的钢铁也无法取代黄金--首席执行官也是如此。
降低CEO薪酬的方法之一是在社会中培养更多的领导者。可悲的是,高素质的领导者和领导力极其稀缺,最好的领导者甚至不是那些薪水最高的领导者(如今那些领导者往往是最肆无忌惮的人)。
这是一个供需问题,黄金的价格上限无法解决这个问题,只有通过开采更多更便宜的黄金才能解决。

these 5 richest people could liquidate a part of their wealth then deposit one million dollars into each and every bank account of every person on the planet. How long would it take for the money they disperse to end up back in their accounts??

这5个最富有的人可以变现他们的部分财富,然后给地球上每个人的银行账户存入100万美元,他们散出去的钱要多久才能回到自己的账户?

@kiernanbauman
While I agree with the policy proposals at the end of the video, they are absolutely impossible under capitalism, especially in the US. The falling rate of profit shows that corporations need to extract profits in every way they possibly can, through usury rents, land rents, price gouging, etc, lest these companies lose money, power, and market share, and thus not be able to pay back their shareholders. Trying to get the capitalist class to regular itself, is an exercise in futility. The only answer is socialist revolution. There can be no real change under capitalism.

虽然我同意视频结尾的政策建议,但这些建议在资本主义下是绝对不可能实现的,尤其是在美国。利润率的下降表明企业需要通过高利贷租金、土地租金、哄抬物价等一切可能的方式攫取利润,以免这些公司失去金钱、权力和市场份额,从而无法偿还股东。试图让资本家阶级规范自己是徒劳的,唯一的答案就是社会主义革命,在资本主义下不可能有真正的变革。

Perhaps humanity should redefine their concept of wealth. As a child I didn't realise that the world I was living in is heaven compared to the world I am living in now. Yet if I had a video of my childhood to show the world it would be defined as poverty level. Yes now I know the full meaning of the songs "My Illusive Dream" and "Life is but a dream". I can remember past/parallel lives where I am both rich and poor, happy and sad. When viewing through the multiple timelines of my creation, I realised that like everyone else have full power to create whatever I like.

也许人类应该重新定义财富的概念。小时候,我并没有意识到与现在的世界相比,我生活的世界简直就是天堂。然而,如果我有一段童年的视频向世人展示,它一定会被定义为贫穷。是的,现在我知道了"我虚幻的梦"和"人生如梦"这两首歌的全部含义。我能回忆起过去/平行的生活,在那里我既富有又贫穷,既快乐又悲伤。当我通过多条时间线查看自己的创作时,我意识到自己和其他人一样拥有创造一切的能力。

Picking March 2020 as your starting point is looking for a reactionbas that was the lowest point in the market. I think you all have to understand thisbis capitalism
Tesla has no dividend and buy backs
Amazon has no dividend and buy backs
Berkshire Hathaway has no dividend and buy backs currently. LVMH is practically the same. The top 5 multi billionaires use wealth to compound more wealth. You either know how to or you dont.. but not in any criminal or shady way. And inflation actually helps the numbers move faster... make your own money and get over it

选择2020年3月作为起点是在寻找市场最低点的反应基准,我认为你们都必须明白这一点。
特斯拉没有分红和回购。
亚马逊没有分红和回购。
伯克希尔-哈撒韦目前没有分红和回购,LVMH也是如此。前五大百亿富豪利用财富来创造更多财富,你要么知道如何复利,要么不知道,但不能以任何犯罪或不正当的方式。通货膨胀实际上有助于加快数字的增长速度......自己赚钱吧,别管那么多了。

@Michael-ur3on
,there is no way that globalisation makes the world more equal!
Look at your own country!
Let alone the poor people in the 3rd world!

全球化不可能让世界变得更加平等!
看看你自己的国家吧!
更不用说第三世界的穷人了!

@SmutnyReptyl
I dont agree with the "China has socialist system" thing. Though still its is clear than even this sovereign state capitalist economy is far better than neoliberalism.

虽然我不同意"中国实行社会主义制度"的说法,但很明显,即使是这种主权国家的资本主义经济也比新自由主义好得多。

@user-dw4qn3zc3m
In words, global trade has been benefiting economies. It's up to individual countries to set up a system to distribute wealth evenly.

总之,全球贸易一直在造福各国经济。主要看各个国家如何建立一个财富平均分配的体系。

@Boxing4K
The problem the US has, and it exists in some form elsewhere too, is that billionaires don't pay their taxes. They pay their huge salaries in shares in their own company, which they are not required to pay tax on until the sell them. The way US tax law is frxd, they are not required to sell those shares for ten years. So how do they live day to day, how do they afford their lifestyles? They get a very low interest loan from a bank, they can get such low interest rates because they have those shares as collateral.
The reality is, they are parasites.

美国的问题是亿万富翁不交税,其他国家也存在这样的问题。他们以自己公司的股份支付巨额薪酬,在出售股份之前无需纳税。按照美国税法的规定,他们在十年内都不需要出售这些股份。那么,他们如何过日子,如何负担得起自己的生活方式呢?他们从银行获得利息很低的贷款,他们能获得如此低的利息,是因为他们有这些股份作为抵押。
实际上,他们就是寄生虫。

My sister has gone hard right because she has some wealth and says she doesn't care about anyone, or their kids. We don't talk anymore because I am an evil athiests socialist

我姐姐因为拥有一些财富而变得右倾,她说她不在乎任何人,也不在乎他们的孩子。我们再也不说话了,因为我是个邪恶的社会主义者。

@bartholomewshirima7060
When one is so rich as using 1mln dollars a day for 400 yrs while lfespan is around 75 yrs.the wealth becomes ridiculous.

当一个人富裕到可以400年每天使用100万美元,而寿命只有75年左右时,他的财富就变得可笑了。

@gregwang8628
The free market globalization could have yielded great benefits to all, unfortunately, it has been controlled by the colonial predators with Darwinian beliefs, and their systematic exploitation has been going on for decades! China on the other hand provides an alternative for the world economy with her Confucius model of shared prosperity with the world!

自由市场的全球化本可以给所有人带来巨大的利益,但不幸的是它被抱着达尔文主义信念的殖民掠夺者所控制,他们的系统性剥削已经持续了几十年!另一方面,中国以其与世界共享繁荣的孔子模式为世界经济提供了另一种选择!

@DbeeSapphire
I do think Elon Musk reinvests in his companies and innovates. Not sure how much of his own money, but definitely his company’s are on the cutting edge of manufacturing and production.

我确实认为埃隆-马斯克对他的公司进行了再投资和创新。虽然我不确定他自己花了多少钱,但他的公司肯定处于制造和生产的最前沿。

@warrenthompson7803
That's the beautiful thing about capitalism .
There is nothing stoping a person from starting there own business from the ground up like I seen a young 21 year old kid do start his own trucking business making over 6 figures a year.
Me I make my own wine and brandy and trying to start my own business .
Reason why our country the U.S makes a lot of money cause a lot of top inventors come from the U.S.
First person to design the internet , build a car and airplane , make top tobacco and alcohol is here in the U.S
If countries wanted to up there value they should be incentivising people over there to start their own car manufacturing business and incentivising people to be inventors instead of boo hoo whining and complaining about it .
Not to mention 21% of white folks are poor and living in welfare while 22% of black folks are also poor and living on welfare so it isn't a black or white issue .
Also another thing to consider , the top earners in the country are the job creators.
And the top earners in this country are already taxed at over 100% rate which already isn't fair.
Also there are companies that allow you to be a share holder in the company working there as an employee , meaning you get a percentage of the profit and earnings if the company does good.
so stop making excuses for the people who don't do so good.
If you want to be rich start your own business and start inventing things instead of making excuses for people who don't .
And just want to blame the people who actually build things.
Also there is a lot to pay for in order to keep a business up and running .
Business taxes they pay into a year , money for your employees to have medical , dental insurance, and life insurance ,
Money you spend every year for your company to be bonded liscensed and insured .
Also it's good that companies invest into their company you think there just doing it for themselves , when a company invest in itself they can expand their business and also create more jobs that we need more of.
Wall mart did it expanded their business and created more jobs , upped the wages and benefits also to their employees .
Also explain to me how Africa is one of the most richest countries in minerals and assets .
But there military capabilities is still third worldish.
No one there starting businesses in building military weapons and armory, and improving goods to make a profit out of it.
Also you are not considering currency and trade value .
All countries back the currency up with something we here in the U.S.A back all our currency up with Silver and gold which has higher trade value then a lot of what other countries back there currency up with .
So our exchange rate is higher then most countries with the exception of the U.K. which is higher then ours.

这就是资本主义的美妙之处。
没有什么能阻止一个人从头开始自己的事业,就像我看到一个21岁的年轻人开始做自己的卡车生意,年收入超过6位数一样。
我自己酿造葡萄酒和白兰地,也在尝试创业。
美国之所以能赚大钱,是因为很多顶尖发明家都来自美国。
第一个设计互联网、制造汽车和飞机、生产顶级烟酒的人都在美国。
如果各国都想提高本国的价值,就应该鼓励本国人民创办自己的制造企业,鼓励人们成为发明家,而不是嘘嘘抱怨。
21%的白人是靠救济生活的穷人,而22%的黑人也是靠救济生活的穷人,所以这不是一个非黑即白的问题。
还有一点需要考虑,即这个国家的高收入者是工作岗位的创造者。
而这个国家的高收入者的税率已经超过100%,这已经不公平了。
另外,有些公司允许你以雇员的身份成为公司的股份持有人,也就是说如果公司业绩好,你就可以获得一定比例的利润和收益。
所以,不要再为做得不好的人找借口了。
如果你想致富,就自己创业,开始发明创造,而不是为那些没有发明创造的人找借口。只想责怪那些真正制造东西的人。
此外,要维持企业的正常运转,你还需要支付很多费用。
他们每年都要缴纳营业税,为员工购买医疗、牙科保险和人寿保险。
公司每年都要花钱购买保税、许可证和保险。
此外,公司为自己的公司投资也是一件好事,你以为他们只是为了自己,但当公司为自己投资时,他们可以扩大业务,也可以创造更多我们需要的就业机会。
华尔街就是这样做的,他们扩大了业务,创造了更多的就业机会,还提高了员工的工资和福利。
另外,请向我解释一下,为什么虽然非洲是矿产和资产最丰富的国家之一,但他们的军事能力仍处于第三世界水平?因为没有人在那里创业,建造军事武器和军械库,改进产品并从中获利。
另外,你没有考虑到货币和贸易价值。
所有国家都会用某种东西来支撑货币,我们美国用白银和黄金来支撑我们所有的货币,而白银和黄金的贸易价值高于其他许多国家的货币。
因此,我们的汇率比大多数国家都高,但英国除外,它的汇率比我们高。

The greatest income inequality is seen in communist, socialist and Marxist countries. Period. End of story.
What degrees do you have from where?

最大的收入不平等出现在共产主义、社会主义和马克思主义国家,我说完了。
你在哪里拿到的学位?

@davidcox8945
HMMmm…..world poverty has decreased steadily in the last two decades with a slight spike during coof (UN stats)….all human wellness indicators are improving worldwide; education, health care, etc, with Africa lagging behind, mostly because it’s population is growing so quickly….world population will peak at 10 billion in 2050, with 5 B in Asia, 3 B in Africa and 2 B in the rest….all these people can probably live equitably on a sustainable human planet if each has a Carbon footprint of 1…..so that means a major readjustment for most people in the West, 40% of whom are obese…stop blaming oligarchs…. what does it mean that 5 people have 99% of world wealth anyway?…… who would they sell all this fantasy wealth to if they decided to cash out?

嗯..... 在过去的二十年里,世界的贫困率在稳步下降,在合作期间略有飙升(联合国统计数字).... 全球所有人类健康指标都在改善包括教育、医疗保健等。非洲落后主要是因为非洲的人口增长太快.... 世界人口将在2050年达到100亿的峰值,其中亚洲50亿,非洲30亿,其他地区20亿.... 如果每个人的碳足迹为1,那么所有这些人大概都能在一个可持续发展的人类星球上公平地生活.....,因此这意味着大多数西方人要进行重大调整,因为其中40%的人肥胖。不要再责怪寡头....,5个人拥有世界财富的99%到底意味着什么?......,如果他们决定套现,他们会把这些虚幻的财富卖给谁呢?

@monash4250
Very good and enlightening video. Thank you so much. I am beginning to more and more understand the evils of Western imperialism and capitalism. I'm a firm believer in entrepreneurship & private ownership but the exploitative and obscenely consumptive nature of Western capitalism is gross. Can anyone explain how China succeeded while Russia failed when they are both communist. Was it corruption or just foolish mismanagement of the economy?

非常好的视频,很有启发性,非常感谢。我开始越来越理解西方帝国主义和资本主义的罪恶。虽然我坚信企业家精神和私有制,但西方资本主义的剥削和消费性质令人发指。中国和俄罗斯都是共产主义国家,为什么中国成功了,而俄罗斯却失败了?是由于腐败还是愚蠢的经济管理不善?

很赞 3
