I strongly disagree with this approach. Rich people (actually - everyone with some resources) invest in new ideas and new technologies that truly advance our economy. E.g. DeepMind and OpenAI are private companies that advance and do private most sophisticated research in Artificial General Intelligence. Methusaleh Fund and Kizoo Fund and SENS Research are doing top-level research in reversing the aging therapies. Tesla and Amazon are goind for Mars. BionTech and Modern mRNA vaccines against Covid are created in private companies using completely new approach - there have not been RNA vaccines before.
Only private companies are so ready to go ahead with such top themes. Governments will not do such progress and such efforts.
I support some form of redistribution, especially I support Unconditional Basic Income/Unconditional Divident, but personal growth, education and skills building should be the top priorities for any social policy.
Thank you for your comment. Of course, rich people invest in important new technologies which favour our economy and I don’t think governments should do these efforts which you mentioned. The thing is, these innovative technologies make rich people often even Richer and most of them are clear rich enough to do both, invest in new ideas and pay extra taxes. Thesis extra taxes could then be redistributed in how like for examination education, health system, climate protection or unconditionally basic income (like you support).
You define rich people as everyone with some resources. I suggest wealth taxes for multimillionaires like business people and Heirs.
