This guy has seen beyond the bubble. The others are still in the bubble and refuse to imagine an alternative viewpoint.
It's actually a very simple concept. People with little means spend everything cent they earn and then some. Nothing is as stimulative to the economy as giving money to people that have little in terms of disposable income. It is not unusual to find that some people are driving twenty year old cars. The average car on the road today is right around ten years old! Families often don't have a flat screen TV. They don't own a smart phone. If these families earned more money they would upgrade their consumer goods stimulating the economy (big time).
