That's according to a new report from Oxfam International, which estimates
that the bottom 50% of the world's population saw no increase in wealth.

根據國際知名慈善組織樂施會的報導，世界人口的後50%在財富上沒有任何成長。

Oxfam says the trend shows that the global economy is skewed in favor of the
rich, rewarding wealth instead of work.

樂施會說這個趨勢表示世界經濟對有錢人比較有幫助。比起苦幹實幹，含著金湯匙比較
有用。

"The billionaire boom is not a sign of a thriving economy but a symptom of a
failing economic system," said Winnie Byanyima, executive director of Oxfam
International.

「一堆億萬富翁的出現，並不是經濟繁榮的表現；反而是一種失敗的經濟體系的展現。」
樂施會執行長Winnie Byanyima表示。

The head of the advocacy group argued that the people who "make our clothes,
assemble our phones and grow our food" are being exploited in order to enrich
corporations and the super wealthy.

該組織的領袖表示那些做我們的衣服、組我們的手機、種食物給我們的人
被利用來讓那些公司企業以及超級有錢人更有錢。

The study, released ahead of the World Economic Forum in Davos, was produced
using data from Credit Suisse's (CS) Global Wealth Databook.


這份研究，在世界經濟論壇之前發布。並且適用的是CS世界財富數據庫。

The report also highlights the detrimental effects of gender inequality with
data that show more men own land, shares and other capital assets than women.

這份報導也提到有關性別不平等導致的負面效果。其中包含男人擁有比女人多的土地、
股票以及其他資本財產。

Rising inequality has been a major topic at Davos for years.

Davos最近幾年的大主題都是都以男女不平等為主。

Oxfam said Monday that it is time for the global elite to stop talking about
inequality and start changing their ways.

樂施會說是時候讓那些世界elite停止利用不平等關係，並且開始改變他們的作為。

"It's hard to find a political or business leader who doesn't say they are
worried about inequality. It's even harder to find one who is doing something
about it," said Byanyima.

「你很難找到任何政治或商業領導人說他們在意不平等。要找到一個為其賣命解決問
提的人，更困難。」

"Many are actively making things worse by slashing taxes and scrapping labor
rights," she added.

「那些人都靠加稅以及剝奪勞工權益使得情況更糟糕了。」

Oxfam said that governments should focus on policies that would lead to
fairer distribution of wealth and stronger workers' rights.

樂施會表示政府的政策應該集中在如何更公平的分配財富以及更強壯的勞工權益

These could include introducing a living wage, supporting labor unions and
tackling gender discrimination.

這些政策應該包括引進生活工資，支援勞工組工會以及解決性別歧視問題。

Governments also need to tackle tax avoidance and put limits on shareholder
returns and executive pay, Oxfam said. The group argues companies should not
issue dividends to shareholders unless they pay their workers a living wage.

政府也應該阻止避稅，並且把股東的利益以及高管階級薪資設定上限。樂施會表示，
公司應該要先付給他們的勞工生活工資後，再來發放股利給股東。

Oxfam also said that tax policies should be used to reduce extreme wealth.

樂施會也說，租稅政策應該是減少極端有錢的情況才對。
