If money was distributed equally among adults in the US, everyone would make around $90k/year income. Not enough to afford a yacht. Not even enough to afford a house in some parts of the country. That's kind of mind blowing to me.
If everyone would make $90k then the economy would be completely different.
I think Lamborghini would be making some budget version of their current supercars, that would never come to exist in a 90k world.
To just name a random item that popped in my head.
$600 gallon of milk. It goes on from there.
Before we go on from there, I'd like to know how you got to $600 milk.
However, if that's to every adult, then couples would be making $180k combined, with which they might be able to save up for a yacht or a house
My household income is $180k and we are definitely not yacht rich, and our house is very modest. I'm in one of the most affordable cities in the US.
Fair enough
And it would last just one generarion, because that amount of money would not be generared if not for those suckers hoarding money
