That the 'little person' benefits to some degree doesn't alter the fact that excessive wealth concentration into the hands of a small percentage of the world's population is beneficial to society in the long term. The Billionaire Entrepeneur did not build an empire without the aid of workers on every level, designers, builders, fabricators, factory workers, etc, and it is those on lower end of the scale that are not getting their market share of the wealth they help to generate.
The the degree of wealth concentration that we have had in recent times is not sustainable.
Typo; I meant to say that a high degree wealth concentration is not beneficial for society.
Well, we've had a "high degree of wealth concentration" for the entire history of the human race. It's just that today, it's mostly easily measured and in the hands of the entrpreneurs who created it. Rather than hidden in the assets of the kings and tryants that had ruled their countries. And yet, today, the middle class is growing to it's highest level in history.
