Top 10 US billionaires’ collective wealth grew by $698bn in past year – report
Oxfam warns Trump policies risk driving inequality to new heights – but Democrats have also exacerbated wealth gap
The collective wealth of the top 10 US billionaires has soared by $698bn in the past year, according to a new report from Oxfam America published on Monday on the growing wealth divide.
The report warns that Trump administration policies risk driving US inequality to new heights, but points out that both Republican and Democratic administrations have exacerbated the US’s growing wealth gap.
Using Federal Reserve data from 1989 to 2022, researchers also calculated that the top 1% of households gained 101 times more wealth than the median household during that time span and 987 times the wealth of a household at the bottom 20th percentile of income. This translated to a gain of $8.35m per household for the top 1% of households, compared with $83,000 for the average household during that 33-year period.

[Announcement] What We're Working On
The launch of Path of Exile: Keepers of the Flame over the weekend was one of our smoothest launches ever. Thanks to everyone who logged in to try it out!
Since the initial 3.27.0 patch, we've made seven hotfixes which addressed a variety of bug fixes, crashes, and balance changes to the new Breach mechanic. There are more hotfixes already in the pipeline to address additional bugs and make further balance changes to the new Breach mechanic.
Hive Fortress encounters will soon be receiving some changes to make them easier to complete and less punishing if you fail.
- Ailith will create skills more frequently during Hive Fortress encounters. Note there is a maximum of 6 skill objects active at a time.
- Increased the internal cooldown for which Ailith can be damaged. This cooldown becomes longer the more damage she takes from an individual hit. This should help mitigate Ailith being bursted down in a few seconds.
- Failing a Hive or Hive Fortress encounter will now drop all the loot of the monsters you had killed up to that point. However, you will not gain any Graftblood or Wombgifts.
- Ranged monsters now have to be closer to Ailith in order to attack her.
As a reminder, week one Twitch Drops are now active, so remember to link your Twitch account to your Path of Exile account and claim your Exile's Treasurer Hideout Decoration and Breachlord's Claw Character Effect! Information on the Twitch Drops and how to link your account can be found in this news post.

in reply to Kami • • •I mean, I understand where you're coming from, they absolutely shouldn't log IPs. BUT, if you're committing crimes or even doing legal things the government doesn't like, it would behoove you to put in the absolute bare minimum of OPSEC at least.
Like, some people know they have STDs and don't warn people and spread them, right? And while the spreader is obviously the problem there, some commonly accepted advice to the victim is "you should have worn a condom anyway." And they should have worn a condom to protect themselves (and also the spreader should be held liable.)
Like the previous example, anyone using any online service (for secrety things) should know to put a VPN condom on before they put their data inside that sexy, slutty server rack. And like how contraceptives were that knowledge needs to be spread.

in reply to Kami • • •Stop spreading misinformation.
You can look it up for yourself but the tldr is that the company donates to leftist organizations that promote freedom, privacy, and open source.
They temporarily suspended 2 journalist accounts in order to verify if they were nation state hackers which was flagged by a CERT, which they reinstated.
