If we peel about 50 billionaires and their families we could make every single American a multi-millionaire. I bet it would put a dent in wage theft, too. Scare the piss out of middle managers so hard they prolapse their ureters.

That's not correct.

The average wealth in this country is ~250k a person

Yeah their number sounded really high, but fuck it hurt to see 250k as well. Do I count as 0 or a negative number if I have more debt than my possessions are worth?

I think ~~0~~ EDIT: I meant to say the total asset value.? I'm not sure. I think the number came from total wealth as an object, not total net worth.
