"And who will decide which of the rich should have their wealth distributed? How do you figure out who is inappropriately wealthy and who earned their money legitimately? Or is ANYONE who has more than you to blame? Very few wealthy people got their money through greed and/or corruption. Most of the people have earned it by way of creating value, for which they have been fairly compensated. The people at the top are mostly there because they've earned it. Mostly, not all. Now if you propose that god is somehow gonna make it equal, swapping the 'bottom rail' for the 'top position' would mean that the poor people would become the richest in the country, and the rich would become poor. Aside from the basic fact that this is not equal, just the opposite, this simply would not work. Let's imagine that happens: most of the poor people (who have NO experience with handling large sums of money) would squander their riches within months of receiving it, and would have no clue on how to generate..." - Marlin Forbes

"It's not an opinion piece, the article is relaying facts from a UN survey. The reporter does not seem to have added any personal interpretation. If you want to call the survey into question, take it up with the UN." - Marlin Forbes
