Now I need to do the math on space karen/ henery ford 2.0 aka Mr my autism makes me prone to outbursts of fascist apologia.

I did the math recently and if you took the assets of the wealthiest 1% and divided only half of it amongst the remaining 336.3 million Americans it would be a check of approximately 68,000 for every man woman and child and those bloated blood sucking leaches would still have an average remainder of just under 6 million dollars each.

I think you have misread what I said.

The richest 1% (3.4 million people) own 44.6 trillion. Half of that is 22.3 trillion so 22,300,000,000,000 divided by 336.6 million (336,600,000) and you're left with $66,646.74 now take the other half and divide it up amongst the 3.4 million richest 1% of Americans and they are left with $6,558,823.53 each
