Limitarianism! A fairer and more just society for all. With great accountability comes great liberation! Thank you for this wonderful talk! Beautifully spoken. Jung and Marx would love this notion. As i suspect will we all!
😮 this gentleman entrepreneur who asks the question at the end of the talk who is on the boundary between unconscious acceptance of what he has been told and believed all his life, and the deeper understanding of his psyche and what motivated him to compete successfully.
The idea of the limits of wealth and poverty is the #4th social principle of the world religion I belong to. However I haven’t had or noticed a discussion about the limitations of weather.
Very Happy, Limitarianism seems so obvious. The Invisible hand punches the consumer with patents, taxing labor more then wealth, the current system seems to be evolving towards one of slavery. Every year a higher percentage of the world profit is made just by moving money around or applying other weird rules. Somehow you can make a number in a financial system grow and that making you richer in a society without any contribution. The idea of Limitarianism isn't entirely new Plato suggested a maximum of 4 times the wealth of the poorest person (or something like that).
The problem with limitariansm is that it might take attention away from radical systemic change... I think it's a very good conversation and a valuable approach. But systemic change has to be an absolute priority.
@@jamesmay3941 ow, yes... I should read it. I just think that the approach of removing rentier-incomealltogether is much more fruitful in the first place... and I do not really hear that, for example interest-free credit, abolition of the financial sector and the stockmarket... ending landlordism: the big three. I hope to talk to her one day. She lives next to my country... so you never know.
Perhaps, in a reductionist view, individual mindsets need to be formulated in a way that supports cultural change. Cultural change, then forms political aspirations. To me, it all boils down to independence versus interdependence.
What is the number considered extreme? And isn’t there extreme wealth gaps between government and the private sector? It’s better to concentrate on corruption….extreme corruption in government is far more harmful to a community than extreme wealth gaps without corruption.
Socialism has failed everywhere tried. Some Pigs always more equal than others above any law. It isn't true that Jesus loved everyone. He clearly opposed the swine and dogs of corrupt government who must not be named unless one loses one's head like John.
No, the super rich decide the economy. They decide where financial capital resides, they decide what your wages are going to be and they decide what state laws and regulations don't apply to them or their interests. We vote for the government, but what the government does is managed by the super rich.

great talk
Thank you Ingrid Robeyns. John Rawls, veil of ignorance.
I totally missed your talk about difference. I need to hear and read things so many times to get it.

Systemic change is what she argues for in her book, it's a key part of the approach.

No one gets rich on their own.

We would pay dishwashers dearly.
Socialism, democracy in OUR economy. No big government, big people, WE DECIDE OUR ECONOMY 😊

I will not dissuade you from that thing you call stephen. In some ways, he's worse.
