RE: Tax is not Enough

in LeoFinance5 months ago

the economy is so unhealthy because we have a "profit at any cost" system

This is the root of inequity and misaligned incentives for profit over communal good.

I'm not sure how much more of this society and the natural world will be able to suffer before something breaks. Then again, maybe we are just 2 or 3 generations away from the international wealth gap becoming so large that recovery becomes impossible due to the concentrated power of wealth in the hands of so few.

Maybe we've already passed the tipping point. The rich able to hide themselves away in their ivory towers while the general public languished out on the street. Without a younger generation to worry about (no kids/family), I'm just burning the candle at both ends until there is nothing left!
