I skipped over this the first time, because you're mostly a bore. But I
should respond to this for, well, accuracy.
When speaking of the disparity of wealth in global income earnings it is
not a matter of 1% of the population who have the most income. Well, that
is one way of analyzing the situation. Often one compares the richest 1%
of people and compares their wealth against the median 50%. That is one
way. Another way is to look at the percentage of people who have incomes
at the top 1% of the scale for all salaries paid to people.
32000 USD/yr represents the entry point for the top 1% of salaries paid to
people the world over. 99% of people make less than that, per year.
This graphic illustrates the situation well. The poorer countries have
much larger populations, but their salaries are much smaller.
