How productivity of the civilisation is eaten by the elites through money debasement. Almost no one is realising that till the time he reached the dream belongings (after 25-30 years) this is already the same which he had 30 years ago if you put it against GDP. So he didn’t achieve anything, the society became more productive, and now he has this what the wealthy had 30 years ago(a house and a car). But now the wealthy have already a plane and a mansion.
