The gap between rich and poor is rapidly widening, but we’re simply standing by. As a result, our economy is becoming increasingly unfair and unhealthy.This book explains why this is, and what we can do about it as the problem grows increasingly larger. High time for change! We make ordinary people pay a lot of taxes, while we leave extremely rich people and their gigantic wealth alone. It is a rule that we once invented ourselves, but no longer works. In this book, which serves as a manifesto behind which is a website of a great movement of ordinary people, you will read how in an increasing number of areas the inequality between the common man and the club of the exorbitantly rich is causing significant problems. The solution is at hand: introducing a tax on the wealth of the super-rich: the Super Rich Tax. We have to change the world; it can’t go on like this. Because of the super-wealth of a few, everyone else will have less and less money and fewer and fewer opportunities, the world’s economies will come to a creaking halt and there will be fewer opportunities for our governments to solve environmental and climate problems. We must tax extreme wealth, so that healthy economies and governments can be restored. Global wealth should circulate among the largest possible group of people. There is a revolutionary way to achieve this. What are we waiting for?
