wealth prefers a zero sum game, in order to gain something, you have to take it from someone else. But we've been in a positive sum society since industrialization where each person can add to our collective innovation. Sadly keeping people in squalor keeps wealth happy, where we could be so much farther ahead if people weren't forced into poverty. I say it that way, but we only see a huge growth in everything when more people add to the pot. Like stone soup.
