Economic inequality in the world increases considerably

According to a study by a British non-governmental organization, economic inequalities in the world population is increasing exponentially. The cause of greater responsibility would be the increasing globalization, that is distinguishing the world economy. One of the more data that show the phenomenon has to do with the wealth concentrated in one percent of the world population, which would have been equal to the remaining ninety-nine percent. This value exposes how the problem of inequality concerns more and more not only the poor areas of the planet, but also the so-called rich countries, where the impoverishment of the middle class, has caused the sliding down of this social sector, changing so substantial structure of Western societies. Within the given concentration of wealth in the percentage of one percent of the world population, the sixty richest people in the world can boast a total assets of 1.76 trillion dollars, a figure increased by 500 billion from 2010 to date. This trend has resulted in a significant erosion of the wealth of the least wealthy of the land, estimated at around 3.6 billion people, which saw a decrease of 41% in five years, corresponding to approximately 1,000 billion dollars less. The picture is therefore one where the details vary considerably, a positive sign of the richest and the poorest negative, but with those who are placed at the half, sliding inexorably toward the far lower, due to a decrease of their income, although in a less sensitive. As for the poorest countries the reasons for this depletion, are to be found in the full utilization of resources, which is always in favor of states or foreign companies, which operate under favorable owing to the significant presence of corruption, an endemic problem in the countries poor, in the increase in wars and famines, often caused by alteration of the clime as a result of pollution, functional to the production process intended to increase the wealth of the richest. The decrease in shareholders that took place at the expense of the middle class western, then in the richest part of the planet, has its origins in the eighties, when it is alleged neo-liberalism advocated by the then US President, Reagan and British conservative leader Thatcher . In this phase of history it has begun to break down the welfare state and its guarantees, continuing policy so far by the European Union, too subject to the wishes of the Germans. But just environments liberal, not liberal, come the criticism of these data on inequality, which are read in a different way, they are presented as false and functional polemic against globalization. According to these advocates of the market economy practiced without influences and constraints state, reading the data in question should be reversed, favoring the increase in welfare Trai poor, rather than the increase of the assets of the wealthy. It is not clear, however, how these data can be reconciled if presented both on the rise, except for the increase in the welfare of the poor do not intend to shift from a situation of extreme poverty to misery only softer. This improvement, assuming that it is true, is not enough to balance the great distance between the two ends of the scale of wealth and the absurd concentration value in the hands of very few people. In addition, the erosion of assets of the middle band is a major cause of the stagnation of a productive economy, which represents a large part of the total, still calibrated to the needs of the middle class, which has been without enough income to meet them; it does not feed their labor markets where this social sector is most used, causing a kind of implosion of the system itself. There are other causes of growing inequality and are identified in the presence of tax havens and the presence of states that facilitate large multinationals with a tax as less generous, that subtracts revenue to other nations, where the gain occurred. Some of these cases occur even within associations of states like the European Union, where there should be greater cohesion between members. The fact remains that the phenomenon of globalization, announced, as a possible solution in favor of greater redistribution of wealth has rather unequivocally caused higher concentrations, while avoiding the spread of wealth; certainly the cause can not be in globalization itself, as in the manner in which we wanted to use it, even in a political sense, suggesting the perception of the creation of a world order where the few dominate the many.
