I kinda disagree with this. There's too many of us in India. We are replaceable wage-slaves - since we are "resources" in high supply, our demand is less. And therefore, capitalists have a justification to pay us shit wages, because "it's the free market". Maybe if some of us were aborted, we'd have had an assurance to quality life, if not economic growth and technology transfer.

That's still a capitalism problem. 10 people working produces more than 10x the wealth of 1 person's labor. It's capitalism that causes the uneven distribution of that greater wealth.

I wanna argue the 10x bit: specialization and organization is a force multiplier in terms of production.

It's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.
