A report released by the international relief organization, Oxfam, 17, showed that the global gap between the rich and the poor has widened since the outbreak of COVID-19. The total wealth of the 10 richest people has more than doubled, while the number of poor people has increased by more than 160 million.
The "inequality kills" report quoted the latest data released by the world bank, Forbes, Credit Suisse Research Institute and other institutions to draw the above conclusion.
The report said that from March 2020 to November 2021, the total wealth of the world's richest 10 individuals increased from about US $700 billion to more than US $1.5 trillion, equivalent to seven times the total wealth of the world's poorest 3.1 billion people. At the same time, the number of poor people has increased by more than 160 million.
According to the report, during the epidemic period, global economic, gender and racial inequality increased day by day, and the gap between countries also increased. This change "is tearing our world apart". Oxfam conservatively estimates that inequality contributes to an average of at least 21000 deaths worldwide every day, equivalent to one death every four seconds. This conclusion is based on data on global factors such as lack of health care services, gender violence, hunger and climate change.
German news agency quoted the author of the report as saying: "this is not accidental, but (artificial) choice: when structural policy choices favor the richest and most powerful people, 'economic violence' will occur. This has caused direct harm to us, and the poorest people, women and ethnic groups have suffered the most."
The report calls on relevant parties to adjust tax policies, promote economic and social reform, and increase investment in health care, combating gender discrimination and addressing climate change, so as to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor and promote social equality.
According to Forbes magazine's ranking at the end of 2021, the 10 richest people in the world include Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, Bernard Arnault, chairman and CEO of LVMH, French luxury group, Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft Larry Ellison, founder of Oracle, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, CO founders of Google, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, an American social media giant (now known as "Yuan"), Steve Ballmer, former CEO of Microsoft, and Warren Buffett, a well-known American investor.
