Such subtleties seem seldom to draw a lot of comment. <br /><br />It seems to me that in the best sense, the idea that economic growth would help everyone was based on increasing the resource and labor pool. Some have taken a narrow reading of economic growth as the main aim to mean that helping businesses make more money is the best policy. I think a more nuanced approach, where we see that distribution matters, and that everyone includes humans of all classes and nations and may even include fish, animals, and ecosystems, and that help may mean increasing quality of life as much as income, is harder and more rewarding. <br /><br />Growth, including such nuances, does seem a much more appealing game to play than grabbing a larger share of the pie.
