“Our governments are still doing nothing to overcome the outrageous inequality.

Instead, they meet behind closed doors, participating in an exhibition of private riches.

This year, another quarter of a billion people will find themselves in extreme poverty.

It's time to balance the world.

It's time to tax the rich, "said

one of the millionaires who took part in the protest.

The action was organized by members of the group "Patriotic Millionaires".

The group first met in the U.S. in 2010 to demand the repeal of tax breaks for the rich imposed by former U.S. President

Since then, more than 200 wealthy people have joined the organization.

Millionaires are in favor, among other things, of raising the minimum wage and improving the progressive tax scale.

The traditional economic forum in Davos, Switzerland opened on May 22, 2022.

The sessions are attended by more than two thousand people - representatives of political and business elites, including state leaders.

One of the main topics of the forum will be the war in Ukraine and its consequences.

Participants from Russia were not invited to the forum, and the "Russian House" in Davos was renamed the House of War Crimes of Russia.
