This is the good old trick often done by startups: founders & investors create and generously give themselves a lot of shares, diluting the share of rank-and-file employees to zero. Here's some deep analysis from a armchair economist. $6T goes to the US "board members": their share of the company (I mean, the planet's resources) grows, but the share of rank-and-file American employees (I mean citizens), probably shrinks. My guess: $5T will be hoarded by the US elites, $1T will trickle down to citizens, the world's GDP will shrink from $80T to $50T and the US's GDP will shrink from $20T to $15T. If these hand wavy assumptions are correct, the US citizens' share will grow by 5%, from 20/80=25% to 15/50=30%, while the elites will get an extra 5/50=10% share of everything. Everybody outside the 12 mile zone around the US land is going to lose. |
