How big should the world economy be before we can feed, clothe and house everyone?
The logic behind the successful earning more has the flipside that the unsuccessful deserve to earn less. As a society we've decided that all people should have access to asset-based wealth. In a sane world this wouldn't be an issue. In this one, it's led to price fixing, government corruption and inescapable poverty. Housing is not a free market. And yet we treat it is as such.
Until governments shift taxation from income to wealth this increasingly unfair world will continue to punish those who cannot keep up.
