I wonder if google was like this from the start and just bid its time and kept appearances. Though more likely it was money and success that changed the company. I resent money so much, not for how its used but what it does to people when you have enough of it. Yet you must have money in this world or you will be trodden to the ground, unable to even feed yourself.
I'm starting to wonder if a limit to personal wealth could counteract this. Say $20 mill. That includes ALL personal wealth – stocks to property. Everything above goes into funds managed by scientific counsils or to a semidemocratic technocrat government.
Anyhow, I recon it needs to be funneled to people that lead by humane ideals and not let singular persons that go by money for moneys sake have such ridiculous amounts of power.
There’s precedence for a 100% inheritance tax. And the highest income tax bracket was 70% for most of the last century, though now it’s 30%.
