That assumes a zero-sum game in all cases. It is not.
It's not as zero-sum as you seem to imply.
> It's not a zero-sum gameYes it is.
It's definately not a zero-sum system
Please explain to me how anything you said leads to the conclusion "it's a zero sum game". Literally, nothing of what you said even supports that conclusion. I fear you don't understand what zero sum means or rather you don't understand why it wouldn't apply in this case.

That’s a zero-sum way of looking at a non-zero-sum situation.
You're assuming it's a zero sum game?
Yeah, exactly, it's not a zero sum game.
"The economy is not a zero-sum game" is something a lot of people don't seem to get.
