Re: Inequality (none / 1)
It doesn't work like that.

Taxation is about power redistribution, not about money as a conserved object.

When the Inland Revenue in the UK let Goldman Sachs off a sizeable tax bill while bankrupting small business owners for relatively tiny amounts due, that's very much a live political issue.
