    there’s a certain amount of money in the economy. let’s say $1 million.

    of that, $500K belongs to the billionaires and $500K to the average people. Which means the population owns half of all.

    Now, you distribute another $1 million among the average people.

    Now, the billionaires still have $500K, but the people have $1.5 million, which is 3/4, which is more than 1/2, so it’s an improvement.
