What is the total wealth ?
by Max B. Sawicky
The Fed Gov says it's $89.9 trillion for the U.S.
Some of it -- like the Brooklyn Bridge -- would
be hard to divvy up. Would you want a share
in the Brooklyn Bridge? It would look nice on
the wall.

Ok I said it dumbly, but I'm trying to start a holistic thought like Levins
and Lewontin might advise. Is there enough wealth in the whole world to give
everybody a decent minimum ? Could we have a world minimum income/networth ?
So, you want to sell me the Brooklyn Bridge ? I must look like a peasant
from Detroit.
Can I sell the paper on the bridge and buy some use-values I can use ?

Subject: What is the total wealth ?
What is the total wealth, networth, value of all the economies of the world
? Do any economists estimate this ?
What is total wealth divided by the population of the earth ? If total
wealth were divided equally, what would be per capita networth ?
