I can't imagine why you'd get downvoted for that. Yes that's absolutely true and I'm all for a globally equitable wealth redistribution.

It's the whole "they're gonna hunt me for sport?!" Meme, I think. They imagine that if we share ownership equitably globally, they will suddenly have to go to eating rats and dying in the streets, when realistically it will just mean a heavier emphasis on industrialization and international public transit, with more equitable distribution of wealth.

For anyone confused: no, I'm not advocating for people taking your gaming PC.
