PG:"We will not do a good job of fixing the bad causes of economic inequality unless we attack them directly. But if we fix all the bad causes of economic inequality, we will still have increasing levels of it, due to the increasing power of technology" I still don't get what PG is trying to say. For example few years ago Google and Apple bosses made secret agreement to not hire employees of the competing company. The goal was to transfer wealth from engineers to shareholders and bosses. There are a lot of other examples. That's why the essay had so much negative comments. PG should clearly condemn these practices. PG:"we will still have increasing levels of it, due to the increasing power of technology" That is just narrow VC point of view. Think about what cheap printing technology did for our civilization. There are countless of other examples. Today UK monarchy can only dream about the power they had. I had a dream that the technology (Internet, DVCS ...) will make legislation process more transparent. Tax loophole? Just file a bug, propose a fix, vote for the fix. Think about what Stack Overflow and Github did for software development. Something similar can be done for the law.
