Consider looking then to a country that completely rejects globalism, like North Korea. How has _modern technology_ helped citizens there live long, healthy and satisfying lives? >unbelievably distored distribution of wealth and political power Distorted by who's standard? There's no way to scientifically assert that a certain distribution of wealth and power is correct; it's just a distribution. To assert that a particular distribution is "wrong" (or synonyms in this case like "distorted") is a value judgement. It's a natural impulse for people to feel bad when other people have more than them, and this feeling is called envy, so it's not unreasonable to attribute a person's dislike of a distribution in which others have more than them as motivated by envy. Especially from the perspective of someone who believes increasing the size of the pie is more important than equalising the distribution, which many economists believe.
