"You want to limit billionaires’ (1) ostentatious consumption, (2) political influence, and (3) media power. The need to limit (or thus to punish by exorbitant taxation) ostentatious consumption is to maintain a society where huge differences in wealth, while some may be unavoidable, are not displayed in front of everyone and cannot become the object of adoration or of hate. The goal of (2) is to make billionaires (which despite everything will still have disproportionate political influence) more like other members of community or nation. We are not talking here of democracy but of isonomia, a much better term to indicate an approximately equal influence of all individuals in political decision-making. Today’s so-called democracies are places without any semblance of isonomia precisely because the political power of the rich is unconstrained. Finally, (3) is needed for the same reason as (2): to limit the power of a few. A pedagogical tax branko2f7.substack.com/p/a-pedagogica…

2025 da record per i miliardari. Che "catturano" la politica: hanno 4mila volte più probabilità di ricoprire una carica rispetto a un comune cittadino, oltre a influenzarla via lobbying e controllo dei media. Il rapporto @OxfamItalia ilfattoquotidiano.it/2026/01/19/mil…

La pochezza di chi si disinteressa del proprio e dell'altrui lavoro e la profondità eterna della Sinfonia Concertante di Mozart. Come farsi passare arrabbiatura e amarezza e trovare il modo di superare, con un po' di fantasia, chi non fa e godrebbe nel veder non fare anche te.

Nell’ultimo anno sono scaduti i contratti di oltre 2.500 ricercatori a tempo determinato e 4.000 assegnisti di ricerca. L’esaurimento dei fondi del PNRR, denunciano i precari, porterà all’espulsione entro l’estate del 2026 di circa 20 mila lavoratori. share.google/nYLTXT3HC0suF4…

🚨 Historic moment at the @g20org: The first-ever report on global inequality, presented by our co-chair @JosephEStiglitz: "It's not the laws of nature that determine inequality. It's the laws that we pass." 🫵Time to rewrite the rules. Full report here: shorturl.at/P8WGu

As inequality deepens and finance expands, political cohesion erodes: mass immiseration and elite overproduction can reinforce political instability. Redistribution may ease tensions, but lasting resilience requires rethinking the policy paradigm. Link: ideas.repec.org/p/jau/wpaper/2…

Ricchezza media familiare del 10% più ricco: + di 2 milioni di euro. Ricchezza media del 50% più povero: 60 mila euro. Un paese di poveri convito dai ricchi che non ci sia bisogno di una patrimoniale. A raccontarlo, fai fatica a crederlo.
Camilla Conti@petunianelsole

Intanto Landini, a corto di motivi per scendere in piazza, rilancia un evergreen: il “contributo di solidarietà dai ricchi” (aka patrimoniale).
