Economics is just theory. Inequality is easier to understand when we examine greed- of the individual, the group/society or the nation(s). Trade wars are a form of greed. So are tariffs, sanctions, cutting off vital supplies. Empires are greedy- usually for raw materials and trade benefits. Societies push appetites that are based on debt and credit and most do not reward savings or frugality. Now we will punish China for giving us what we wanted- cheap prices based on cheap labor and the degradation of its enviornment. Jolly stuff. Next- will probably be Brazil. Sorry, Allan, the "game" started when one guy in the clan was the best shot, the best hunter- he wound up chief- got the prettiest wives, the best cave and so on. It's about power and rivalry.
