It is absolutely zero sum for any measure that matters over periods that are impactful to individual and familial human flourishing
This capitalist rationalization of greed-based markets, loves to pick whatever timeline for measurement which fits their criteria.
It is unambiguous that wealth and power accumulation will persistently concentrate into the smallest number of hands in absence of collective structural countermeasures.
So the default state of large scale capatalist systems follows power law in both wealth and power distribution. It’s a mathematical reality that is shown over and over and over to repeat itself
You're pitching this as truth when in reality it's just one viewpoint. Simon is not "wrong" any more than you are "wrong". You're just arguing from different perspectives.
