This statement keeps getting postulated here and I still don't buy it.
The economy is NOT 0 sum. Inequality in itself doesn't doesn't do anything bad.
Billionaires existing can be true while poverty shrinks.
IMO it is a low value argument to state that we could fix world problems by removing "inequality". I'm happy to be proven otherwise.
- seoulmetro 2y agoBillionaires existing are actually fantastic for poverty. The more the better. BUT we need to somehow poke holes in the billionaire that don't both totally drain them or leave them unharmed. The holes need to be large enough that they can help the government support the people. Problem we have is that the billionaires bought all the hole punchers and aren't letting the gov use them like they used to.
