From my understanding amount paid for the raw trees by mills hasn't gone up, so it's clearly on the mills that are capturing the excess profit; makes me wonder if there needs to be a mechanism for society to capture much of that unusual profit to then redistribute as one such mechanism.
- boublepop 5y agoWe already have a system that captures a part of both usual and unusual profits and redistributes them. It even scales with the size of the profits. That’s how taxes work.
