I like this article not because I think you are entirely right but you are the first writer who talks about money as a social construct that can shape environment. Truth is though, I’m learning to be grateful for the resources I have access to and learn to use them as best as possible to get ahead. Also inequality doesn’t always mean some loses, sometimes it just means others win more than others and there’s levels to this yet comparison is the thief of all joy. Even low income people today in America can afford an IPhone, TV, Car etc. things that only the affluent could afford just decades ago. Money is not just in the paper it’s in everything and it shows our priorities. And mines need to get a whole lot better lol. But you live and learn.
