Rich nations became richer not because of inclusivity or equal laws, as there’s no such thing as absolute equality anywhere in the World. Under Monarchs, Communists, Capitalists, nations became rich equally where there’re unequal laws. Whilst Democracies went poorer where there’re equal laws. Striking down affirmative action is one such example that’s been termed to include only merit-based equality, but one needs good amount of investments since childhood to prepare for a merit in most cases, which is again absent under several circumstances. From Stringent Border Controls to Deportations to Currency Dominance to Geo-Political Influence to Investments / Merit Based Immigration to Population Control to Money via Wars or Recessions; all played a role in making a country more richer. You require good investments/credentials to shift to Monaco, Monte-Carlo, U.S., Switzerland, Nordic Nations; but you go to other democracies, where people have the decision-making power, yet where poverty is never going away! South Africa became equal and inclusive, yet, did it become richer? Qatar is Rich! China is Rich! UAE is Rich! Saudi is Rich! Is there democracy?
This is all theoretical baloney that inclusivity, diversity, people taking decisions in their own hands, that makes a country rich. If Nobel wants to project itself under this illusion that how much caring it is about the Will of Sir Alfred Nobel, then go ahead, and market itself in this fake narrative about contrived diversity by bestowing another award in the name of unrealistic PR propaganda like Universal Basic Income, which at the end of the day leads us to anarchy, similar to that of Mad Max. But the truth is, this is all an illusion and propaganda.The day any rich country would achieve even 5% of India’s diversity, that nation would not be able to remain rich. Not possible! The World’s largest nations in terms of habitable lands have least population. Why? Because they controlled the immigration and diversity, which was restricted to who can contribute to the economy, the most; whether in Blue Collar Jobs or White Collar.
Thus, this gobbledygook of inclusivity, contrived diversity or people’s power lead us to becoming RICH, is just another marketing gimmick. Ask Sri Lanka! :(
