An upper income tax and wealth tax bracket defined annually by a multiple of mean GDP per capita, and set at 100%. This rich, and no richer.
If you want to get beyond nx wealthier than today's average citizen, you're going to have to make tomorrow's average citizen richer. Want your slice to be bigger? Enlarge the cake.
N income and n wealth could be really big, it could be possible for individuals to be filthy rich and still have this work, IMO.

American prosperity and perceived poverty - an excellent analysis on a historical, economical, political and psychological level.
Listen till the end of the video (26 minutes) as it's not only about Americans being better off than people in some underdeveloped countries, and not everything is said at being two thirds through the video.

Refeed daily for #health and #prosperity
I received your #survey by email yesterday and filled it out -- I suppose the flood of letters and calls you receive are not easy to catalog. Daily, I hold conversations and hear tales (and fear) of the decline in #prosperity and #opportunity from across the full spectrum of #US citizens. 4/15
#GOP only knows how to start a #recession. Since WW2, #USA has seen most #growth and #prosperity under #Democrat #governance. #MAGA is by far the #worst of the lot. In addition to being #ignorant, they are the epitome of #arrogance, #racism and #antiAmerican behavior.

![So, are these differences in outcomes just the result of random chance? One would think so. But the application of universally accepted statistical methodology says otherwise.
The last five recessions all started while a Republican was in the White House (Reagan. G.H.W. Bush, G.W. Bush twice, and Trump). Readers can check out the chronology for themselves. The odds of getting that outcome by chance, if the true probability of a recession starting during a Democrat’s presidency were equal to that during a Republican’s presidency, would be (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)(1/2), i.e., one out of 32 = 3.1%. Very unlikely. The same as the odds of getting “heads” on five out of five consecutive coin-flips. Such a rejection of equality is said to be “statistically significant at the 95% level of confidence.”
What if we go back further? A remarkable 9 of the last 10 recessions have started when a Republican was president. The odds that this outcome would have occurred just by chance are even more remote: one out of 100. [That is, 10/210 = 0.0098.]](https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/114/337/207/182/112/230/original/700c65af36af4676.png "So, are these differences in outcomes just the result of random chance?

@tg9541 They get it from the “Atlas Shrugged” novels written by #Russian emigrée #AynRand (where the ‘hero’ is a character named John Galt). Her hyper-rationalist #Objectivism philosophy (#empathy is a sin) was perversely melded into the ethos of so-called fundamentalist #Christians already worshipping #prosperity in the #UnitedStates.
I saw an excellent essay on this #American phenomenon entitled “Who is #Jesus Galt?” that has since been ‘disappeared’.

Where does prosperity come from? From nature? from authorities? from unions? from capital accumulation? When capitalists accumulate capital, everyone, even the poorest, prospers. When #government or unions interferes with the market, #prosperity shrinks. #capitalaccumulation #capitalism #unions
#prosperity : advance or gain in anything good or desirable
- French: prospérité
- Italian: prosperità
- Portuguese: prosperidade
- Spanish: prosperidad

You cannot have #prosperity. You cannot have #freedom. If you let the thieves take over. #usa #argentina #hungary #israel #russia … #kleptocracy
And not a measure of GDP that most people would appreciate!
Despite growth in 2024, living standards fell. Inequality, weak public investment and government cuts threaten prosperity. Labour must offer voters something different
They don’t appear to embarking on that journey - the cult of Thatcher and household 3economics is strong in Reeves.

If we were to draw up a balance sheet of our #civilization since the industrial revolution, #prosperity would be at the top of the assets side. On the other side, we find two serious liabilities: the #destruction of #nature and growing #social #tensions.
It is becoming increasingly clear to us that these liabilities are no longer sustainable. We need to make fundamental changes to this balance sheet.
Talking about energy transition I wonder how sentiments change that some people express here on this channel. Talking about the ones dripping with cynicism and bile, even on uplifting and positive announcements. Posted by folks who can only think good #EU, bad EU, judging a singular entity. Now dark energy flows so abundant, it becomes painfully clear we need protect and foster beacons of #freedom, #peace & #prosperity. We need #European #union.
Positive energy
Harbors light!
