You're saying you care nothing for the absolutes and only consider relative wealth. Granted, it's not the case in reality, but all the numbers in the the post

You're saying you care nothing for the absolutes and only consider relative wealth.
Granted, it's not the case in reality, but all the numbers in the the post you're responding to are compatible with a world where the wealth of the poorest members of society has doubled (or even increased tenfold) over the same time period.
- maxxxxx 8y agoSo we have an economy that produces a lot of wealth but if most of it goes to the top it's not really helpful for the rest. In my opinion it's much healthier for an economy if gains are more widely distributed so relative wealth is very important in the long run. Otherwise we are building up a new aristocracy.
