Great insight here. It’s so interesting how individuals can view wealth across generations and come to such different conclusions. I haven’t put my finger on it, but it seems to be a core issue. Where there are those who believe human progress is measured in wealth equality — that the existence of a trillionaire suggests a digression in progress — there are also those who view human progress across improvement in the human experience across time. These core differences end up as major assumptions, and thusly, as dividing lines, very quickly. I greatly prefer analysis that is OK with testing the validity of those core assumptions.
