Let's just say somehow, it did work out...

I don't think inflation works like that? I could be wrong, I think I am BUT... they're not making any more money or adding any more paper to the system. Just spreading it out more.

But ok, what if the top 100 richest people only gave money to people who were making less than 25k/year.

Would that be more possible? Sigh whatever, I just get sad when I see the distance from the richest to the poorest.

Like someone else said, $122 USD is a lot for a family in a struggling country.

If everyone in a developing country would get a certain amount of money then it would become pretty useless. Im a bit drunk so im not sure if it makes any sense but w/e

But much of economics is based off supply and demand, if everyone were to suddenly get money, they would most likely use that money to buy products, which in turn will allow the producer to charge more for everything and in a sense making the money less valuable.

yeah but it's not like he's creating money, the money's already there
it would just distribute wealth to the population, but it wouldn't change anything because EVERYONE would recieve the money

the only net effect would be bill gates being broke

I'd say a better idea would be to just give everyone who actually needed the money rather than just everybody in the world. Because there are millions who would just use the extra $20 or whatever to waste it on something stupid whereas if only the less developed countries received the money then not only would they have more money to spend but they would also spend it on things that actually mattered, like food/clothes/bills.

If everyone has the same amount of wealth, "richness" ceases to exist.

By ontological argument, it is not possible for all to be rich.

No, not in any meaningful sense. If everyone in the world lived, say, like middle class Canadians, the Earth's resources would be consumed in a day. If only all of China lived like Canadians, the world would see the same fate.

While we can create as much currency as we want, they're only so much out there to buy. You'd just have a lot of people with a lot of money, but nothing to buy with it.
