The media hysteria yesterday over the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor probably tells us something about the state of the world right now.
Has there been any such media noise about all the women who have suffered under the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and his male friends.
The wealth of Epstein, the wealth of Andrew, prince or no prince is obnoxious.
The top one percent of the world’s population owns approximately 50 per cent of the world’s wealth while the top 10 per cent own roughly 75 to 86 per cent of it.
The bottom 50 per cent of the world's population owns about two per cent of total global wealth.
The wealthiest 0.001 per cent control three times more wealth than half of humanity.
Never too much talk about the evils that allow such disparity.
Bet none of Epstein and pals’ trafficked young women were from the 0.001 per cent gentlemen.
Retired journalist Vincent Browne never said a truer word when he said that when we give titles to people we give them power over of us.
