Apparrently if all wealth was divided equally across everyone on the planet, everybody would have around 30k disposable income. It would be interesting to see what people think. Please play nice. It's only hypothetical so don't worry, your millions in the bank are safe. |

"After a year most of it would belong to a minority agsin. Many of whom would be the same ones who had most of it in the first place. "
Yes I agree Most would easily part with “their pot of gold” and the cycle would return to normal |

I think people should be paid better wages across all jobs, and I think certain jobs are way overpaid for what people actually do.
But I don't agree with spreading the world's wealth to everyone. If you work hard why shouldn't you get rewarded for it? |

I think the people who put their lives on the line for others should be paid the most, then people who care for others.
It's no wonder so many kids are trying to be YouTubers, when it's easy cash to be made, our entertainment industry wages are obscenely disproportionate to reality for our kids.
So no I'd not want equality in wages, just a little common sense |

If all the wealth is equally spread then who’s responsibility is it to create new wealth as if you give most people £30k as a lump they will spend it
There was a programme a few years back where people got their benefits in advance for a year to see what they did. Whilst some set up or tried to set up a business most blew large chunks of it |
