Description
The Case for a Maximum Wage by Sam Pizzigati A maximum wage could be an effective way to tackle rising inequality in modern societies. Egalitarians worldwide are exploring this idea, and leading analyst Sam Pizzigati explains how it could work. Pizzigati argues that governments can use their tax systems to enforce fair income ratios across the board, building on local initiatives. The goal is a world without a super rich, where everyone has access to basic economic security. This book explores why we need to create such a world and how we can speed its creation. By examining the potential of a maximum wage, Pizzigati sheds light on an alternative approach to addressing inequality.
