Jenga economics

1. At the bottom of the tower are the workers and consumers.
They’re the foundation; the people whose labour and spending keep everything upright.
2. At the top are the wealthy.
They benefit when the whole structure grows.
3. In a healthy economy, you strengthen the base.
Better jobs, fair wages, affordable housing, childcare, and energy costs give the bottom layers stability.
4. A strong base means more spending and more participation.
That extra demand lifts the whole tower, including the people at the top.
5. But our current system runs on “Jenga Economics.”
Instead of strengthening the foundation, wealth is extracted from the bottom and stacked at the top; higher rents, higher bills, higher debt, lower security.
6. The tower gets taller, but also weaker.
The people who hold everything up have less purchasing power, less stability, and less ability to fuel growth.
7. Does anyone know how jenga ends?
