It could be much worse. Usually resources subsidise billionaire lifestyles where one person consumes massive resources to support their lifestyle. At least Norway spread that around a bit even if limited to their own country.
Ideally the world would be one with equity and all but short of a benevolent alien invasion or AI takeover we’re not getting that. At least Norway’s doing well at wealth distribution at a local level.
Someone has to still make the food they eat and clothes they wear.
I assume the poor people in Asian countries do it for them and still remain poor their entire lives even though they work probably 100x more.
What a shit show economic system we have made.
