@rbreich@masto.ai Also... Western economies are based on the movement of money from one place to another, usually from people to companies in exchange for goods and services.For those at the bottom, ~100% (and often more) goes back into the economy, paying for housing, household bills, food, transport, and other neccesities. Those atvthe top are often squirreling large chunks of their money away in offshore accounts, physically removing that money from the economy. Those with next to nothing are doing proportionally more for the economy than those with everything.
