Here I am at almost 80 years old, a poor person in a rich country. The world is not more equal. The world is WAY LESS equal than ever, and the reason is that you cannot have a growing number of billionaires without also having a growing number of poor people. And I am, so far, a very fortunate old, poor person, because I still have fairly good health. If you are an extremely wealthy person reading this, I challenge you to do something that will make a difference in this situation in the world.
我今年快80岁了，是一个富裕国家的穷人。世界并没有更加平等，世界比以往任何时候都更不平等，原因在于亿万富翁的数量没有增加，而穷人的数量却在不断增加。 到目前为止，我是一个非常幸运的老穷人，因为我的健康状况还相当不错。如果你是一位正在阅读这篇文章的超级富豪，我建议你做一些能改变世界现状的事情。
God bless you and I truly mean that in every sense of the word.
You are richer than you think..
Our greatest wealth in this world is our health and our families.
上帝保佑你，我是真心的。
你们比自己想象的还要富有。
我们在这个世界上最大的财富就是我们的健康和家庭。
@jb2736 capitalism economic system demand that you need to hoard to survive. Like that of sharks that need to swim to breathe .. Likethat of Fiat currencies that build value based on confidence.. as you can see.. those billionaires are becoming zombies that are stuck in a hole of forever swimming to stay alive.. without a sense of contentment.
@jb2736 资本主义经济体系要求你必须囤积居奇才能生存，就像鲨鱼需要游泳来呼吸一样。 正如你所看到的，那些亿万富翁正在变成僵尸，他们被困在永远游泳才能生存的洞里，他们没有满足感。
@isabelleniu9615 yeah.. addiction like anything else is very hard to give up.. HMMmm.. I guess the best solution is, HMMmm, create a system to deny those few per cent to end their hoarding by creating medication or psychological treatment and a universal system to counter such addiction.. like anything else, addiction needs to be carefully studied and applied the methods to veined them off their psychological impairment.. HMMmm..
@isabelleniu9615是啊......和其他任何东西一样，成瘾是很难戒掉的......嗯哼......我想最好的解决办法就是建立一个系统，通过药物或心理治疗和一个普遍的系统来抵制这种成瘾，从而让那百分之几的人结束他们的囤积。
He is one of the best independent journalists of our times. He speaks truth to power.
他是当代最好的独立记者之一，因为他用事实说话。
This isn't some aberration. This is the system working as intended. The contradictions of capitalism made manifest.
这不是什么反常现象，这是制度在按计划运行。资本主义的矛盾昭然若揭。
True, but "Centralization of debt the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly" is exactly what Marx wanted and what we have now. By controlling debt, you get to pick winners and losers. Marx thought that the ruling class, being smarter than the serfs would do a better job with resource allocation.
没错，但"将债务集中到国家手中，通过国家银行，由国家资本和独家垄断"正是马克思所希望的，也是我们现在所拥有的。通过控制债务，你可以挑选赢家和输家。马克思认为统治阶级比农奴更聪明，会在资源分配方面做得更好。
@sdrc92126 Marx's ten measures in the com...st Manifesto referred to measures that would be taken under proletarian rule, which we do not have. Under our current system, the U.S' dollar hegemony is used as a tool of imperialism (the final stage of capitalism as said by Lenin) via the IMF and World Bank that is basically U.S-run.
@sdrc92126 马克思在《共产党宣言》中提出的十项措施是指在无产阶级统治下采取的措施，而我们没有无产阶级统治。在我们目前的制度下，美元霸权通过基本上由美国经营的国际货币基金组织和世界银行被当作帝国主义（列宁所说的资本主义最后阶段）的工具。
@sdrc92126 As a rule of thumb, the com...st Manifesto isn't the core of Marx's works, it's basically a pamphlet detailing ideas that would be compounded upon later. I find it better to read the three volumes of Capital and Marx's Critique of the Gotha Programme. So yeah
@sdrc92126 作为经验之谈，《共产党宣言》并不是马克思作品的核心，它基本上是一本小册子，详细介绍了一些想法，而这些想法将在以后得到补充。我觉得最好还是阅读三卷本的《资本论》和马克思的《哥达纲领批判》。
That is economic singularity. All of the world's wealth in a few hands.
这就是经济异常，世界上所有的财富都掌握在少数人手中。

What eludes the average citizen is that taxation on great wealth is not a tax on the entire fortune, it is not taxation on the earning in any given year, but it is a tax on the profits after deductions. And great wealth hires lawyers that whittle the obligation to zero or even a tax refund provided to them by "owned" legislators. All the largest corporations zero-out on tax obligations.
普通公民不知道的是对巨额财富征税并不是对全部财富征税，也不是对任何一年的收入征税，而是对扣除后的利润征税。富人会聘请律师，将纳税义务化整为零，甚至由"拥有"的立法者向他们退税。所有最大的公司都不承担纳税义务。
“Western modernisation was fraught with crimes such as war, the slave trade, colonisation & plunder, which inflicted untold misery on many countries. Having long suffered from aggression, bullying & humiliation by Western powers, we Chinese are keenly aware of the value of peace & will never follow the well-worn path of the West. The biggest problem with Western modernisation is that it is capital centred rather than people centred & seeks to maximise capital gains rather than serve the interests of the vast majority of people.”
"西方的现代化充满了战争、奴隶贸易、殖民和掠夺等罪行，给许多国家带来了无尽的苦难。我们中国人长期遭受西方列强的侵略、欺凌和凌辱，深知和平的可贵，绝不会走西方的老路。西方现代化的最大问题是以资本为中心，而不是以人为本，它追求的是资本收益的最大化，而不是为绝大多数人谋利益。
There was a time when a family could buy a house, earn interest on a savings account to build wealth. You could go to school to get a higher education. In the last 20 years, all this has been taken from us.
Ben this is what you mean when great wealth predates on the population in quest of perpetual profit.
曾几何时，一个家庭可以买一栋房子，通过储蓄账户赚取利息来积累财富，你可以上学接受高等教育。但在过去的 20 年里，这一切都被剥夺了。
本，这就是你所说的，为了追求永恒的利润，巨大的财富优先于人口的增长。

That was the 'good old days' that the people that long for it, but don't want, where the top nominal tax rate was 91%.
那是人们向往却不想要的"好日子"，那时的最高名义税率为91%。
Anybody wishing to read a great book on the subject, “Technofeudalism” by Yanis Varoufakis does an excellent job of describing the transformation of capitalism into its current state of central bank subsidised necromancy
如果有人想读一本关于这个问题的好书，亚尼斯-瓦鲁法基斯（Yanis Varoufakis）的《技术封建主义》（Technofeudalism）可以很好地描述资本主义如何转变为目前这种由中央银行补贴的亡灵状态。
It’s ridiculous to be so greedy when they are going to die just like everyone else. They act like they are going to use that money in the next life.
他们和其他人一样都会死，却如此贪婪，真是可笑。他们表现得好像下辈子还要用这些钱似的。
Late stage capitalism.
When people talk about democracy or capitalism they talk about ideal situation where nobody will be dishonest or corrupt.
这就是资本主义的晚期。
当人们谈论民主或资本主义时，他们谈论的是没有人会不诚实或腐败的理想状态。
Man I remember watching you in the past. I cant remember what news organization. Glad I found you again. keep working and speaking the truth. No imperialism. No Zionism. No Fascism. Imperialism and Colonialism never died, it evolved into capitalism.
我记得以前看过你的节目，但我不记得是在哪个新闻机构上了，很高兴我又找到了你。没有帝国主义，没有犹太复国主义，没有法西斯主义，帝国主义和殖民主义从未消亡，而是演变成了资本主义。
Very precise summary to give us an overview on how the economic and financial system Is deepening inequality. Thank you!!
非常准确的总结，为我们概述了经济和金融体系是如何加深不平等的。谢谢。
When a man became too powerful for the king to tolerate, that man was removed.
When someone is kicking you while you are down, you better get up and fight.
当一个人变得太强大，国王无法容忍时，这个人就会被撤职。
当有人在你倒下的时候踢你时，你最好站起来战斗。
And half of the billionaires seem like plants from the various world governments.. given their economic positions by steady kush government deals throughout their careers.. with suspect “entrepreneurial” beginnings.
有一半的亿万富翁看起来像是来自世界各国政府的傀儡时，他们的经济地位是在整个职业生涯中通过稳定的政府交易获得的，他们的“创业”起点令人怀疑。
Thank you Ben, for exposing some of the greedy faces of the usual suspects, who are responsible for so much extreme suffering all over the world.
谢谢你，本，你揭露了一些惯常嫌疑人的贪婪嘴脸，他们要为全世界如此多的极端苦难负责。
Interesting topic, thanks Ben Norton. Innovation and technology is a great thing if money is distributed humanity and mankind, instead of richest getting richer and poor getting poorer
有趣的话题，谢谢本-诺顿。如果金钱是在人类和人类之间的分配，而不是富者愈富、穷者愈穷的话，创新和技术是一件伟大的事情。
Ben you are now in the midst of a lot more of paid propagandists but no worries as whatever you delivers are informative and we are awared of your hard work. It takes a lot of time & energy to sieve through a lot to produce whatever you have to produce in all your videos, tq.
Your narration reminds me of Blackrock in their latest monetary gain in taking up the assets of Ukraine in the 'stock-market' openly sold by the current head of Ukraine!
本，你现在处于更多有偿宣传者的包围之中，但不用担心，因为你提供的信息都很丰富，我们都清楚你的辛勤工作。你需要花费大量的时间和精力去筛选，才能制作出你所有视频中的内容，谢谢。
您的叙述让我想起了黑石公司最近在"股票市场"上收购乌克兰资产所获得的金钱收益，这些资产被乌克兰现任首脑公开出售！
Apparently there is half a quadrillion dollars of wealth in the world. Despite most people living at or below subsistence. And the planet is dying. Inequality is the factor that matters for the economy and the environment.
显然，世界上有500万亿美元的财富。尽管大多数人生活在温饱线以下，但地球却在走向灭亡。不平等是影响经济和环境的因素。
It is them against us, make no mistake about it, and never delude yourself to think this can change. It can only be ended
这是他们与我们的对抗，不要搞错了，千万不要自欺欺人地认为这种情况可以改变，它只能被终结。
The future looks bleak for the generations to come. How depressing. Where is humanity going to? Backwards towards slavery full steam ahead.
子孙后代前途渺茫，这多么令人沮丧啊。人类将何去何从？向奴隶制全速倒退。
Yanis Varoufakis explains very well this rise of inequality as a structural change to capitalism which he calls techno feudalism. Ben citing OXFAM describes the astronomical rise in the wealth of our new techno lords.
亚尼斯-瓦鲁法基斯（Yanis Varoufakis）将这种不平等的加剧解释为资本主义的结构性变化，他称之为技术封建主义。本引用牛津饥荒救济委员会（OXFAM）的数据，描述了我们的新技术领主的财富的天文数字般的增长。
Ben! I love your videos! But I have to correct you!!! Bernard is not just luxury goods- he acquired Sephora in 1997 which is interesting bc currently there’s a big fad of young girls glorifying Sephora … idk if this has contributed some to his Neo con purse
本！我喜欢你的视频！但我必须纠正你。Bernard不只有奢侈品--他在1997年收购了丝芙兰，这很有趣，因为现在有一股年轻女孩美化丝芙兰的大风潮......我不知道这是否对他的新骗局钱包有一些贡献。
That Bill Gates said that he has more trouble spending his fortune "well" than he had getting it.
If that is not the proof that personal income should be limited ( if you have minimum loan, why not also a maximum personal wealth?)
比尔-盖茨说过，他"花好"自己的财富比得到财富更困难。
如果这还不能证明个人收入应该受到限制（如果你有最高贷款额度，为什么个人财富不能有最高限额呢？）
A great explanation Ben. Thank you. But until there is MUCH more awareness of these things? Time, which is NOT on our side, lets billions more be spent keeping these things secret. And to crush indie media. As I watch you now, and no one else (but a few) is invited to look. To cloak the censorship.
本的解释很棒，谢谢。但是，在对这些事情有更多的认识之前呢？时间不在我们这一边，让我们再花几十亿来保守这些秘密并压制独立媒体吧。就像我现在看你的视频一样，没有人（除了少数人）被邀请去看。
I agree with your analysis. What can we do about it? Wishful thinking and pure demands don't change anything.
虽然我同意您的分析，但我们能做些什么呢？一厢情愿的想法和纯粹的要求并不能改变什么。
Those policies would be a good start, but it’s never going to happen.
The briks monetary system might take the pressure off some though.
这些政策会是一个好的开始，但永远不会实现。
不过，金砖国家的货币体系可能会减轻一些压力。
This is why China's model of dual emphases on both increasing the size of the cake and dividing the cake well is so compelling. China seeks the dynamism of the market, but also does not place capital at the center of the governing philosophy, but keep a human and society centered philosophy.
这就是为什么中国既要做大蛋糕，又要分好蛋糕的模式如此引人注目。中国的执政理念既追求市场的活力，又不以资本为中心，而是坚持以人为本、以社会为中心。
