Fine. I’m not gonna argue that, most people would agree with you. I’ll just reiterate you and I have a fundamental disagreement on what doing well and what a good life is. Because to me doing well and a good life are defined by so much more than just whether or not you have power over people.
Look, I don’t think we’re in disagreement here. I also wasn’t entirely serious in my first post but sardonic. What I’m saying is that right now they’re getting what they want - which, I’d argue, is one way to “be doing well”. Whether or not that makes you happy in the long run is a different matter. But right now they’re winning a lot of fights - they’re doing well.
So power. Power is doing well in you’re book.

Who said anything about “a good life”?
