把这一句,留给此刻的你

是的,自由市场往往产生不平等的收入。我们不应该为此感到羞耻。相反,我们的体制是全世界羡慕的对象,应该成为骄傲的源泉。

We need to recognise that what really matters isn't buying more and more consumer goods, but family, friends, and knowing that we are doing something worthwhile with our lives. Helping to reduce the appalling consequences of world poverty should be part of that reassessment.
我们需要认识到,真正重要的不是购买越来越多的消费品,而是家人、朋友,以及知道我们在用生命做一些有价值的事情。帮助减少世界贫困的可怕后果应该是重新评估的一部分。
