You almost repeated - word for word - what Henry George said in 1878. Great minds think alike! It's the reason why Classical Political Economy is described as "The Science that deals with the Nature, the Production, and the Distribution of Wealth. That "Distribution" bit is the essence of Political Economy. Would that modern economists would start thinking about why the distribution is so unfair, instead of devising ways to patch the system by taking from the rich and giving to the poor.

Productivity hasn't fallen even though there are far fewer workers employed.) Why these "problems"? Harry --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
