Money today is LESS than a zero sum game. The way currency is produced makes it so. When currency enters the economy, it enters with interest, which puts the system in a situation where there is insufficient money to service the debt, particularly if there is any form of economic slowdown. End result here is the system will force people to default and go insolvent.
Now, one can say WEALTH is not a zero sum game, and there is truth to that. A system can have sustainable growth and be able to help more and more people. This is a situation where more people end up winning. But as it is now, it isn't so. The end result today is a paper game where money produced stays in the financial system, and doesn't get out. Rich get richer because of how it is rigged, and unless you can get on the other side of the debt game, with money being leveraged, you fall further and further behind. Sure, some who aren't on the debt game sometimes get lucky, and get there, but it isn't the norm any longer.
