We could tax the wealthy and spend more on education, universal basic income, etc There’s not enough political will though.

- tomcam 8y agoHow much more should the wealthy be taxed? Who decides who is wealthy? For example, you are probably massively wealthier than many hundreds of millions of people in the world. How much should you be giving? How much would that contribute to your lofty goals?
- boomboomsubban 8y agoWhen we get to a point of automated food production, these goals aren't that lofty.
- nervousvarun 8y agoAgree but political will is a tricky thing here. How "representative" of our country (assuming you're in the U.S. apologies if you're not) are our politicians? How many are "wealthy" vs. the general population etc.?
