But if we raised the bottom up enough, it wouldn't really matter if they were on the bottom. Many people would be happy if they had a stable place to live, food, healthcare, and freedom, and many don't really need or even want "more" all the time. The problem is the vast differences in wealth and ownership.

That’s a fair point. But in a world that values money above all else, that’s not just a divide in wealth and ownership but a divide in power.

The problem is you can't exploit comfortable people, so the uber rich would only be super rich, and that's not good enough for them...
