Thank you. Though I don't think this is a comprehensive list, it really brings home some of the frustrations when talking to others in tech about economics, particularly getting them to critically examine economic inequality. Because of the higher pay in our field, many programmers/tech people have the luxury of believing in simplistic economic models, which largely fall back on some economic version of the just-world fallacy(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-world_hypothesis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-world_hypothesis). Their most salient datapoint (themselves) fits perfectly into their view, so why bother to complicate it? That having been said, I'd love to hear/read more on how the conversation can be moved forward with people who stubbornly hold the beliefs mentioned here.
