There's a lot of variation in people.

The tallest adults can be 2.5 times as big as the shortest.

The strongest maybe 5 times as strong as the weakest.

But nobody works a million times harder, or is a million times smarter.

So why is our economic system set up to give them a billion times as much wealth and power as the poorest, least powerful?
