Great post to highlight this, I read this most recent Oxfam statistic (82% of wealth for the 1%) and felt the same. These 1% have no idea how easy it is to fall into financial difficulty, I have spoken to so many people on here who, like me, were helped out of a bit of a tough time by Steemit, and plenty who have changed their lives.
The problem with the 1% is that they are also the ones who are most capable of changing the status quo, but instead list for even more wealth and inequality. In the same way the bankers carried on taking their huge bonuses while the rest of the world was reeling from the recession they caused. To me that’s not only why we need Crypto, but why it was necessitated in the first place. I’ve no doubt that this will really be the biggest redistribution of wealth the world has ever seen, and to me getting rid of banking control on the world is the first step in that.
