40% = 1%

Some great "minds" have determined that 40% of the world's
wealth is held by 1% of its people......So what is new?......

If I remember correctly, we all grew up learning about
"castles".....Those big stone houses up on top of the hill.....

We also learned that surrounding these large stone
homes there were a lot of people who "worked the land"
and they were know as "serfs".......

Does anyone know how many "serfs" it took to support one
"castle"?........(Or coolies an Emperor?)......Pumps
