richer

Concentrated in the hands of very few. Over half of the population has negative wealth.

more developed

I'll give you that one, though not everyone sees any benefit of it.

better to live in

Again, far from everyone. There's areas with barely a dirt road and no access to clean water, there's neighborhoods that look like 1990s Sarajevo right next to ultra-rich neighborhoods and women and minorities are discriminated against and abused more than most other Western countries.

Just be happy with that.

No.

Bro just be happy being a wage slave. It's easy. We all need to do our part for the shareholders.
