cash transfers from rich to poor can increase happiness of the poor

While at the same time DECREASING the hapiness of the rightful owners of the cash.

It's called Marxism. Many wars have been fought and millions of lives have been lost over it.

“A team of researchers at the University of British Columbia, working with two wealthy donors has found that transferring money from rich people to poor people can increase the level of happiness reported by the poor people who receive the money.”

And this is EXACTLY why GenZ votes 90%+ for Democrats. GenZ should be renamed as the something for nothing generation.

And this eye-popping study cost how much government grant money???

The happiness dissapears as soon as the cash does, then they want more.

We are OK financially - but $10,000 right now with no strings attached would make me VERY happy.

I wonder what the results of the study would have been if they had substituted “drugs” for “cash”? Perhaps the same? If so, what would it mean?
