It is absurd, but also the miracle of modern wealth is that it's not a zero-sum game.

Even if you are in favor of redistributing wealth or ending extractive institutions, a rising tide raises all boats.

"a rising tide..." ummm are you paying attention to the last 40 years in the US? wealth disparities rivaling the Gilded Age

[Eddy_Viscosity2]

The billionaires own all the boats.
