I agree with pg -- eliminating inequality would almost eliminate incentives to take great risks, and would be a disaster for the economy.

- agentultra 13y agoEconomic inequality is a broad concept and only one in which I don't think the Internet is playing as positive a role as Alexis is bragging about in the introduction to this book. I know the Internet has made some people rich but it's not as flat and egalitarian a world as his optimism and unbridled enthusiasm seem to admit. However I am reserving any conclusions until I've finished reading it.
