LABOUR

DIMINISHING RETURNS

Why are the rich getting richer, but the middle class isn't gaining anything? In fact, why are they being pushed down the social mobility ladder? 

The difference lies in what they use AKA trade as a resource to gain further resources. The group that qualifies as the “rich” use money to make money. The middle class, on the other hand, uses time to trade in the form of labor to earn the resource of money. 

The value of resources can shift quickly, and what was once considered valuable may no longer be. One such resource is labor. Labor is becoming a diminishing return as a resource for society. 

What does that mean? 

It means that labor is worth less, until it will eventually become worthless.

This is the number one distinguishing factor of why the rich are getting richer and the middle class, well, isn’t.

It comes down to the resource they “work with” to get ahead – the group that uses labor to get ahead can no longer get ahead because the resource they are using is no longer worth what it once was and it will soon be worth even less.
