Not really, and especially on a macroeconomic level it's the opposite of the truth.

The happiness described here is not monetary. It's stuff like gay people existing. Your economic status and your queerness shouldn't correlate. So queer people being happy with their lives doesn't take away anything from anyone else.

And on a macroeconomic level, more equal societies produce more growth and thus more wealth for everyone.

My bad, didn't appreciate it was referring to happiness in terms of social freedoms.

I meant for someone to have a good life without monetary worries on one side of the world it almost necessitates worse conditions elsewhere.
