No. But we need that many people to buy the stuff.
- david927 10y agoDo we? I'm not sure we do. Inequality has increased so much that the bottom 50% don't really own anything, they have no wealth to speak of. Their income, combined, pales to the top 1%. If they stopped buying and renting tomorrow, there was be a hiccup, to be sure, but not more than that. And that's new too.
