Sure, but the $900 dollars would otherwise have gone to buy a car from someone else who fixed up a car or made cars.

I can see how reducing the cost of items or services can make more people "wealthy" - such as being able to buy a second car. But reducing costs normally means reducing wages meaning the owners get richer, and the manual jobs disappear.
