Living On A Dollar a Day


Nearly 1.8 billion people on our planet live in extreme poverty. (1,800,000,000)

Most are barely existing on $1 a day.

Often that dollar is stretched to support a family of six.

In comparison, the world’s 1,426 billionaires make, on average, $273,973 a day.

That daily figure is more than 20 percent higher than what the world’s poorest citizens will ever make in their lifetimes.

This is capitalism.
