    This is largely because the relatively rich are a lot more of “our” people than we want to admit in the West. In a hypothetically egalitarian world where everyone lives at the same economic level, a solid quarter or so of Americans would need to accept less affluence. All of the greedhead strivers we’ve cultivated for decades would need to accept aiming lower.
    I don’t buy it. Never happening. We’re going to get a worse fate, chaotically.
