    Flawless .

    People talk about the age of abundance - we’ve been living it for decades. Money is created out thin air, automation and industrial have done the rest.

    Marx called it 100 years ago. Thomas Piketty nailed it down a few years ago : Surplus goes to assets owners - the more assets you own, the more surplus you accumulate and it’s effective are compound over the time. Until you have a handful of people people who own all the asset, which is where we are now.
