OK, let us confiscate all capital and distribute it evenly to
every
one. Then what?
then we have democracy?
No, because people always congregate into groups, it is their
nature. And from there it is "Lord of the Flies" all over. It has
happened many times before. Why do we never learn?
wouldn't even need to confiscate all capital, and I don't think that
anyone is suggesting that. Just make hoarding wealth more expensive.
Sure! A tax credit for investing. Oh way, that already exists! It
is why the investment tax is so low as it is!
Maybe follow the Scandinavian model on a trial basis for 20 years in a
handful of cities.
Scandinavia is a bad place to build a model because it has a
homogeneous population. Such populations behave, on average, very
different from highly diverse populations. Segregation into polarized
groups happens much slower in homogenous populations. You might check
out the meme flow in such conditions, its amazing.
