But you seem to claim that the rest of the world is stagnant and in all instances without growth, though why anyone would give a #^&#^&#^&#^& about growth if the benefits to them were de minimus is the cause of the “great resignation” in this country.
Notice that this has not occurred throughout the developed world.

if the 1% took half if what they biden and burned it, they’d no longer own 70% of the total.

Who would be better off, komrade? you?

Why does it matter if bill gates creates more wealth for himself? why do you assume
that the less he has, the more someone else has?

it’s not a zero sum game.
