Nobody can work 700,000 times smarter. Even among skilled workers, this is far beyond the difference among individuals.

Additionally, you're making the ludicrous claim that billionaires are the ones inventing new tech, not the Engineers who designed them or the factory workers who build them.

On top of that, you're outright incorrect about the USSR and China with respect to innovation. This point is silly, innovation has happened for all of human existance, and yet you believe that what drives innovation is Capitalists paying engineers rather than Workers paying engineers. Ludicrous.
