I recently read a quote in The End of Poverty (2005) by Jeffrey Sachs that blew my mind.
He states, that in the year 2000, the 400 richest U.S. taxpayers had a combined income that exceeded the income of Uganda, Botswana, Nigeria, and Senegal - COMBINED.
400 people earned 12 billion dollars more than 161 million people.
