And my point is that we already have TOO MUCH “creative destruction” in the US. It results in wasted potential — like it or not, most tech founders and artists come from upper-middle-class (at least) backgrounds.
The next Steve Jobs might be working in a call center in Dubuque Iowa, trying to make ends meet. Good Will Hunting was just a movie 🙂
You still had brilliant people doing their creative things in the 1960s when inflation was low, educational opportunity was accessible and cheap, and income disparity was much lower than in 2013.
