Report: World's richest to own half of worldwide wealth
Tuesday, January 20, 2015
The world's rich are getting richer. A new report reveals the world's richest one percent will soon own 50 percent of worldwide wealth.
The report comes from the anti-poverty charity Oxfam.
Last year, the wealthiest one percent controlled just 48 percent of the world's wealth.
Oxfam is now calling for action to address inequality.
