Are they ripping the net open to share with their hungry kin? Or do they reel the net in, trapping all the fish for themselves?

The gap between Canada's richest and poorest grew last year as financial markets gained, interest payouts declined and the job market softened, said Statistics Canada on Monday. The agency says the income gap — measuring the difference in the share of disposable income between households in the top 40 per cent and those in the bottom 40 per cent — reached 46.7 percentage points in 2025. The result compared with a gap of 46.4 percentage points a year earlier.

Billionaire - Rocky Leon

If you wanna be a billionaire

You gotta make a million every year

Then do it for a thousand years without spending a dime

And if you make a million every year

For a hundred thousand years

You’ll still have less than the top five at this time

But compounding interest and bla bla bla

Sound investments and bla bla bla

Risk assessment and bla bla bla

Bla - bla - fuck your bla bla!

Don’t give me bullshit lines about debt and credit

I’m simplifying so everybody can get it

Because people work hard, while billionaires smirk

Cuz you don't make a billion with work

I said if you wanna be a billionaire

You gotta make a million every year

Then do it for a thousand years without spending a dime

And if you’re born a billionaire

And wanna spend it all in eighty years

That’s thirty four grand a day, twelve million a year

Well we’re driving up profits, trying to cut costs

Fuck environmental protection laws

My toxic spills will still kill the animals

And I’m not cleaning up. None of my profits are gonna fall

Why innovate or optimize

When I can bribe a senator and get subsidized?

You’re gonna buy and replace every year

Cuz I got the market monopolized

If you wanna be a billionaire

You gotta make a million every year

Then do it for a thousand years without spending a dime

And in 2025 the richest dudes alive

Can spend seven million every day for 80 years

Do you really think anyone

Deserves more than like 50 grand a month?

Now what is 50 grand a month over 80 years?

That’s less than 50 million

Not five hundred million or a billion

Barely fifty million. Now here’s a great idea

Nobody should have more money than that

(Just like all of the kings and the queens queens)

Nobody should have more money than that, give it back you motherfucker

(we can throw you, we can throw you)

Nobody should have more money than that, give it back!

Give it back - give it back

Nobody should have more money than that

Give it back to the world, back to the world

(Just like the French kings and queens)

Nobody should have more money than that, give it back

You didn’t earn it and you don’t need it

(we can throw you in the guillotine)

Nobody should have more money than that

Give it back to the world that you have mistreated

Nobody should have more money than that

The hungry are dying, the planet is frying

And you’re fucking flying to space for fun?

You’re fucking done!

And now you are gonna give that money that you plundered back to everyone

Or get shot into the sun

If you wanna be a billionaire

Fuck you, you can’t.

Unless it’s like in pesos, Then I guess it’s fine

Now just think what could be done with 20 Trillion

Some redistribution would be sublime

If you wanna be a billionaire

You gotta make a million every year

Then do it for a thousand years without spending a dime

And if you make a million every year

For a hundred thousand years

You’ll still have less than the top five at this time
