The Overall Size of the Pie Can Increase

There is absolutely no way for everyone in the world to have the same quality of life as you do in the west, and some countries in east asia. I mean, who is going to be s ing the clothes and making the mobile phones? Surely the demand for those things will dramatically increase if every country is developed but there won't be any way to get cheap labor any more. Yes, it is kind of the question of modern economics. So while there remains economic in equality, the overall size of the pie can increase. And we have seen this with hundreds of millions of people emerging from poverty in the last 30 years.
