The Billionaire's Club

Ah yes, the Billionaire's Club. That group to which I referred in my recent Environment rant as the group that would own the world's habitable resources and to which you would never belong. Here is Forbe's lauding of that kingmaking crowd (which is actually larger at 793 then I'd imagined). Note that under six percent share US citizenship:

Billionaire Bacchanalia: "The U.S. is home to 44 new billionaires and commands nearly half of the fortunes on the roster. Bill Gates retains his title as the world’s richest person for the twelfth straight year, proving that while it’s getting easier to make a billion, the same can’t be said for making $50 billion."
