I just mean, the advancement of western civ in the last 100 years. the increase in wealth. If I had to pick a decade to be "poor" in, wouldn't it be this one? Am I being naive? Haven't we seen 100 years of more progress than ever? poor people today live like kings compared to those of the past. I don't ascribe this to fiat policy but the two nonetheless seem to coincide.
I guess the coinciding of the two apparent truths is what I'm pointing to. Does that make sense?
