Subtitles section Play video Print subtitles earlier this week we talk to you about new Oxfam report but had some statistics about global inequality the biggest one being that the richest eighty-five people in the world have as much wealth as the bottom 3.5 billion now that is I think at best an ominous figure not everybody agrees with that though let's go to kevin O'Leary he was on that Canadian television and he thinks it's a great thing because according to Oxfam on the world 85 richest people if equal to the three and a half billion poorest people it's fantastic and this is a great thing because inspired everybody gets the motivation to look up to the one percent and say I want to become one of those people I'm gonna fight hard to get up to the top this is fantastic news and of course I applaud it what I'm doing wrong with this really yes really somebody living on I celebrate I had a dollar today in africa is getting up in the morning think I'm gonna be bill gay that's the motivation everybody in the Miata a rotation I just need a pilot Mike I am NOT don't have thought like don't tell me that you want to redistribute wealth again that's never going to happen all I know what you take a symbol that like this which is neither good nor bad it's just a fact that the seller charges that I'm very excited about nine wonderful to see it happen I tell kids every day if you know what's good and what's wrong with this at a cocktail party or not many what's wrong with this right now possible with God you and work hard you might be stinking rich Obama people in extreme abject poverty that's how you get 3901 I and we're just talking that really matters grateful no ok write a letter what you should do this I love it like when you say in 85 rich people 3.5 billion he doesn't even here the poor like it doesn't even register now we're talking about the bridge right you're also talking about the poor so she had a great line about their oh wait I don't have Sykes in appetite but you have to go all the way to Africa so in the example I was there was low in West Virginia cuz I was there about a dozen years ago and its it's a pretty poor town if you've never been there right and I like it because it removes all the racial aspects with the white town in everybody in town this poor according to kevin O'Leary golly gee they just got a little bit me they didn't know their poll bombs in that town yeah on everyone everyone I would like if they were all motivated they would all be incredibly rich in Logan West Virginia as it turns out what are we unbelievable question is all the bums the world was I double dare yeah that that's not how it works is because they didn't have very good opportunity in the first place now look it doesn't mean dead working hard is it to get you somewhere yes oh ok or you are gored and I think it'd you can make all the difference in the world but those two things are not mutually exclusive the you might that it's harder for you logo estrogen is harder for you in the Bronx certainly harder for you in sub-saharan Africa rate it does we should give up short course you should work hard but then the say well those eighty five guys made it so then I guess you are just as good as of course you don't have as good a chance by the way they were among those eighty five guys is six Walmart airs didn't even do anything their dad okay bless his heart i mean a lot of people will bless his heart because he lot a questionable things had to get them there well sam walton but are given to all night but the chairs the six airs the Walmart old wooden reportedly walked two houses for any more than just everyone the gene pool lottery that's all the Koch brothers who actually did increase our world also inherited four hundred million dollars yeah well that's not pull your socks up that's why you're making your dad's baby down up yeah and and I totally agree and we say how it it harder to achieve and that makes and cyclic way we don't need it harder as in like you pick up the governing you resist the man it's really hard to resist this company like its hard like there's no computers in my village nobody has shoes in my village that is a really hard and we would not have a problem with the $85 million people it was actually about you know I economic determinism in these people being motivated and stuff like that but that's not how it happened they get there they get to the top of the economic matinee as you I think use this term earlier and the burn the bridge behind them and they read the system the rubric the economic system and then read the political system to give you the small chance possible to achieve what they achieved and that so he is in can I do with a reporter was but i wanna see more per because I love the fact that she called him on his bullshit yes that's a pep rally mandalay and I like it a lot a logo or see on this by no one knows that it's possible better than I do my family does red my father who gropers a very poor farmer in southeastern Turkey in a tiny little Pow right and how to get to where he is now he did two things but you say that guys like Kevin only rule we tell you about 10 but what about was that he worked his ass off right they got up at four in the morning to go literally separate the wheat from the chaff which turns out to be a real pain in the ass but okay well and and picking olives grapes et cetera et cetera any study really hard now to gregg education and then wound up no sorry his own business and then another business and one upcoming American living the American dream a given his kids all doctor in the world for which I'm greatly thankful right okay but the other part of it is the party don't talk about that where he scored in the top 15 percent in the exam in Turkey you get a free education at the best school okay now that's opportunity that he didn't have that opportunity by the way government created opportunity okay the government says I'm gonna give you this education for free if you have that opportunity right now my ass is big in all those in southeastern Turkey okay so you need bowls and if the kevin O'Leary the world said hey you know if it was fair and those eighty five guys are in it and you know there's debates about that as john pointed out as to how much they really earned it whether they were heirs is like I said or they rate this system is John says and I'm sure among the 85 their people would totally did earlier right n their fair square et cetera but if we all had that option at least an opportunity to shop for that they would be different question if kevin O'Leary said hey you know what the most important thing is I wanna make sure 3.5 million people at the same chance that those 85 dead right then that's a conversation worth having. but the way he sees it as I knew I couldn't live there also and if you don't get to where they did your Paul yeah
