If it hasn't collapsed with a few hundred people having more money than the rest of the entire world while also using it for selfish motives, I doubt it would collapse with a fairer distribution. But capitalism shills gotta shill
There are many problems with this argument; but it's 11pm and I'm sleepy, so have the first one that came to mind.
Those countries don't have a lot of wealth per capita to begin with, so it's not a goddamned equal comparison.
Do you know which one was more equal? USA in the 50s and 60s, when the tax rate for rich people ranged from 70% up to 92%. A time period where regular people could also afford to live comfortably (family and house included) with a regular job.
Sorry, your arguments are just bad and only show your ignorance.
