Well, I might be dumb, but I still don't see your point. Would you mind going into more detail?
@realcaseyrollins @leyonhjelm @Mac_CZ
Are you talking definitions here or are you trying to make a point?
Yes, in primitive willage a guy with spear is rich. In here, a guy without air conditioning is poor.
That is quite a difference don't you think? The moment you can produce more value then you need, you do start an infinite loop. Because if you can meet your needs by working 9 hours instead of 10, you are more likely to find more ways to make it into an 8.
If you cut your expenses to a reasonable level, then in here you can live on a part time job already. And that is with average pay. That is quite an acomplishment. That is possible only if you live among people who know how to generate value. And it can go away as soon as people stop producing more then they need.
Now back to the point I think you are trying to make. Have you ever watched survivor shows? I don't like them, but you can clearly see there 3 stages of work. First stage are women
. You will never see them work, and if you leave them alone, they WILL die. Second stage is what you would call poor. These people are willing and able to work. They will make a spear, and fish. They do understand the need for production. But there are also people from the 3rd group. Dreamers that might seem relatively lazy, not spending all of their time hunting and tinkering instead. but these people will eventually make a net. After that, they will find a way to make better tools etc.
These people, I do worship. Because each of their works make the life of everyone easier. They do turn work from a zero sum game into a game of exponencial gain.

Guess wich one will be paid for his job 3 years later?

*I meant to say kechup instead of roll, but you get my point...
@realcaseyrollins @leyonhjelm @Mac_CZ
No, it's not.
You have a bun
You have a sausage
You have a roll
If you ever heated up the sausage and put these things together, and you know how much do people pay for a hot dog, most kids can come to the realization, that the math does not add up.

>While I know my 100 dollars here will do nothing to 100 dollars in africa
Fuck... I do not even believe that when I whink about it. When I help someone become self-sustaining or even productive in here, they do make much more good throughout their life then any saved african life ever could.
@leyonhjelm @realcaseyrollins @Mac_CZ
If you think that the economy is a zero sum game, I take it as a proof that you never produced ANYTHING of value in your life.
