First of all no it doesn't. Reagan economics does not work. Bezos cannot hire 10 million prostitutes as long as he has only one penis. Nor does he particularly want to spend money.

he also is stuck in a worldview that is not post scarcity.
In 1930, there was more feet than shoes. Now there is more shoes than feet, and we are absolutely over saturated with every commodity, far beyond what we can use. Hence planned obsolescence, which ironically resembles the heart of Communist ideology.. central planned economy.
