Ah yes. All those nurses, and bus drivers, and teachers and scientists, and retail staff just lording their enormous wealth over the poor people who merely inherited a bunch of houses.
Your just world fallacy doesn't work when we're literally staring at an example of how blind luck is sufficient to lead to massive inequality.
- Applejinx 4y agoExactly. It's an experimental, easily reproducible, look into boundary conditions and wealth distributions in the total absence of merit or value. Basically a proof that simple exchange of value can and does produce massive immiseration that serves no purpose and signals no possible merit or value. Add any degree of either merit, or exploitation and criminality, to the mix and the distribution will just get even more ridiculous.
