Commissar SFLUFAN Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Half of England is owned by less than 1% of the population The findings, described as “astonishingly unequal”, suggest that about 25,000 landowners – typically members of the aristocracy and corporations – have control of half of the country.

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 You mean a country with a Monarch and a sizable Royal family has a significant aristocracy owning most of the country? I’m befuddled by this news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatoneshere Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I'd be curious how many people (percentage of the population) own America's land? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

America is a big empty country outside of the coasts for the most part, it is called flyover country for a reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured, but it's still sad that mega corporations through so many different arms really do own everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she can’t just take land the way her predecessors did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
