I guess what happened in France with Hollande was not enough of a lesson? Anyway, I will repeat: don't tax the rich because of the capital they have to control

Anyway, I will repeat: don't tax the rich because of the capital they have to control the corporations, insult get rid of corporations entirely. Make it so that:
- companies must be limited to a certain size (on the order of 250)
- no individual can work in more than one organization
- individual contractors dedicating more than 30% of their time to any specific company should count towards the cap of the hiring entity.
Concentration of wealth is only a problem because of the power that gives them via the corporations they control. Get rid of the corporations and you get rid of the problem.
Politically speaking, is a lot easier to sell the idea to both sides of the table, while "end billionaires" is something that only appeals to the left.
- JumpCrisscross 2y ago> Get rid of the corporations and you get rid of the problem Wealth concentration predates corporations. Every country with terrible courts lacks true corporations. See how they organise business. (Hint: it’s family and tribes.)
- rglullis 2y agoWealth concentration happens when you have institutions that grow without checks. Before liberalism, this was Church and State. > Every country with terrible courts lacks true corporations. Define terrible. One could argue that the lobby-dominated system from the US is very far from "good".
