We have a pie. It only has a certain number of slices. Unfortunately there are more people who want a slice than there are slices. That sucks. There's a lot of way we could determine who gets a slice and who doesn't get a slice. We could give slices to people who have been there longer. Or we could let people who have more money and value the pie slice sufficiently high to spend their money buy a slice. We could give some money to people who really really want a slice but just can't afford it. We can debate and argue about all the ways we could pick the pie slice winners. But at the end of the day it doesn't matter. The exact same number of people will get slices. And the exact same number of people will not get a slice. All we're doing is picking winners and losers in different ways. The only debate that matters is the one that grows the pie. We need more pie so more people can have a slice. Taking a slice from Peter to hand to Paul is an utter waste of time.
