The rich keep getting richer: Billionaires made enough to pay for everyone’s vaccine during the pandemic, while workers lost $3.7 trillion.

How did we get here? 🧵
As stocks plummeted 37% in March 2020, 70% of small business aid went to large, publicly traded corporations. By June, a stock-market rebound made seven of the world's richest people even richer.

All asked to remain anonymous for a fear of long-term professional repercussions. businessinsider.com/black-comedy-c…
