Travellers rely on sedentary people

People who travel around the world, whether working or on holiday, rely on people who never travel. I can go from place to place, renting rooms in buildings maintained by people who live in the area permanently. My life as a rootless cosmopolitan depends on sedentary people. This is another example of how I benefit from inequality. If everyone took up my lifestyle, it wouldn't work.
