Now, I might be misreading this data, but from what it looks like either one of these billionaires by themselves have more wealth than the bottom 50% of Americans, right?
More like one Billionaire own 5.6 times the wealth of the bottom 50%
Yeah, this is phrased like those three just slightly edge out the bottom 50, as opposed to each individually owning significantly greater than the bottom 50. I'm going to assume these three own more than the "bottom" like 85%.
