  1. Zara Altair not many solutions offered. Well-written but all things we know. Here are my solutions: free school for all, tax the rich by eliminating dividend and capital gain tax rules, everybody has their garden, no lobbying or tax deductible donations by businesses or politicians, no insiders Wall Street info for senators, blockchain system to free up equality for writers, artists, and journalists, equal salaries, and more. My 2 cents Canadian ;-). Thanks.

  2. Pierre Provost C'est ça. Implementation is the challenge.
    Believe it or not, some people do not know this.

  3. The headline implies that the wealthy aren't people, which is nonsense, but shows the man behind the article... enough said there...

  4. Zara Altair true. I was born into poverty and suffer from genetic diseases. Didn't know or understand why I didn't understand! Now I do. And I understand what you are saying because those who don't understand are poor and illiterate. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to earn a great education. Thank you for the post, it reinforces my beliefs and values. Godspeed.

  5. Oleg Moskalensky Consider the source. The Nation. As I posted I kept saying to myself, I never thought I'd be posting from The Nation.
