Oh yeah, it definitely makes sense that the average person in the US would still be better off, but I would think countries like Sweden and Norway would have a net decrease with global wealth being spread evenly. Then again, I just looked up inequality stats and Sweden has higher inequality than the US, so maybe that explains it.
I also just meant like 40 or 50% of all global wealth ends up in America or with American nationals so even relatively well off nations would be doing better under global re-distribution.
But yeah, all capitalist nations are gonna have insane wealth gaps.
There's a fuckton of money in America

Ah, I understand now, and that makes perfect sense. Thanks for the clarification.
