It seems to me that we all recognize the need for incentives and disincentives in order to promote behaviours valuable for society.
But, the idea that a person deserve the financial power of a country in order to be motivate is a little ridiculous. Are we saying that Zuckerberg would not be creating Facebook if he though that it's going to get only 100 million dollars? or that Buffet would not invest if he is only to be the 5th in the Forbes list?
- leereeves 10y agoI suspect most of Zuckerberg's wealth is in Facebook stock. Are you proposing the government should take control of Facebook? Or force him to sell the majority of Facebook to someone else to pay taxes? I do think it would be demotivating to know that if you start a really successful company, the government will take it away.
