Being silly and obstinate when knowledge is in arm’s reach? Making people spell it out for you because you don’t have the respect to look yourself?

OK here’s the short version: the economy has a limited amount of resources and the way they’re allocated matters. A yacht built means no hospital built. Making people work on useless stuff for the rich is demoralizing because their life’s blood is used on meaningless projects. Growing a luxury industry incentivizes gifted people to seek employment in it rather than in other fields where they’re. It matters what the economy does, not just that it grows.

Every LLM will tell you that if you ask. You just didn’t ask. Because you think nothing of others and their time.
