A Quote by Robert H. Frank

When the economic pie grows larger, it's always possible for everyone to have a larger slice than before. So it's really in all of our interest to make the economic pie larger by eliminating waste whenever and wherever possible.
Since the 1980s, we have given the rich a bigger slice of our pie in the belief that they would create more wealth, making the pie bigger than otherwise possible in the long run. The rich got the bigger slice of the pie all right, but they have actually reduced the pace at which the pie is growing.
Labor is not fighting for a larger slice of the national pie-labor is fighting for a larger pie.

For us as players, revenue sharing, getting a larger percentage of the pie, is important, but also the overall growth of that pie is important.
Never say 'no' to pie. No matter what, wherever you are, diet-wise or whatever, you know what? You can always have a small piece of pie, and I like pie. I don't know anybody who doesn't like pie. If somebody doesn't like pie, I don't trust them. I'll bet you Vladimir Putin doesn't like pie.
When entrepreneurs are free to compete, they grow the pie so that everyone's share gets larger.
Give everyone a chance to have a piece of the pie. If the pie's not big enough, make a bigger pie.

They don't understand that a slice of the pie isn't the whole pie - but they wonder why they are always hungry
I love pie. Definitely apple pie, but sweet potato pie - really any pie.
To expect this larger-than-life, holier-than-thou sort of existence from us is not possible. We as much want to make our own mistake as a man does.
Instead, I have an abundance mentality: When people are genuinely happy at the successes of others, the pie gets larger.

I think that one of the things that we all agree to is that the touchstone for economic policy is, does it allow the average American to find good employment and see their incomes rise; that we can't just look at things in the aggregate, we do want to grow the pie, but we want to make sure that prosperity is spread across the spectrum of regions and occupations and genders and races; and that economic policy should focus on growing the pie, but it also has to make sure that everybody has got opportunity in that system.
