This is what we got...

It is obviously that there is 1% of the community in each Legacy servers that owns 50% of the server's wealth and can afford all the Housing lands in Eorzea.

FC Housing was never for us. Yoshi-P only proimsed the 1% that they can buy FC Housing. :p

Unfortunately, the world economy trends with the American economy. Nothing a few years of rational anarchy can't fix.

Wasn't the " :p " a hint big enough to stat this was a joke thread?

Did I need to included a detailed statement saying This is a Joke Thread?

Why so serious?

Can't people make fun of what people are complaining about on the forums anymore?

the 1% have "ruled" the US for well over 50 years now :P welll definitely since the 80s :P

but seriously the whole "by your peers" things is overrated I for one am glad that most things happen as "scripted" in the political/economical sense of the word in this country :P

They are optimistic. Actually, wealth is even more unevenly distributed. :P

Don't worry! The poors can just pull themself up by their bootstraps! They can get jobs that don't pay living wages, and when they complain we'll rag on em on how they should've made better decisions! Like being born into a wealthy family...

Anybody have any stats on wealth distribution during the great depression? I can't imagine it was much better.

If they get hungry and have to eat their bootstraps, how are they supposed to pull themselves up!?

It is much better elsewhere. Of the developed world, the US is one of the worst. Income-wise, at least.

The developed world being... roughly 1% of the population of the entire planet? Ok, just making sure.

1% has been a thing for a while.. like back when kings eat pig and turkey and drink wine until they puke, then cut someone's head off for stealing an apple for their starving child

Of course only the 1% can afford housing. We all know who that is right? Maybe if you ask that guy Asdfsa Fdasd with the nice mansion he'll be willing to give you a few mil so you can buy yourself a cardboard box to live in.
