You are absolutely right: after all, you repeated the same things multiple time so it must be true

Yes indeed, every body can have everything. In the end, everybody will have a palace near the beach, everybody will have a mansion with a qualitative neighborhood, everybody can have a mona lisa at home

You realize there's a vast gap between "everyone can have everything" and "the things that can be exchanged for money is static"?

We don't live in a post-scarcity society, but we also don't live in a world where economic output is zero sum.

If you have a 3 bedroom house, and your neighbor builds a palace on the beach, you still have a 3 bedroom house. Nothing was taken from you, someone else created a new asset.
