Yeah seems like a pretty basic economic concept that when an individual reaches a certain level of wealth/income you start to see diminish returns on what they contribute to demand. But as long as someone is on the poorer side, any additional money you give them will turn into economic demand. If the money is coming from the wealthy and going to the poor, then you aren't losing much and there's not more currency out there, it's the same amount just in the hands of different people.
