Definitely not against experimenting with certain kinds of wealth redistribution (e.g. UBI), but it's weird that these convos sometimes start with "which policy should we use to make the wealthy less wealthy?" rather than "which policy should we use to make the poor less poor?"

The conversation cant move forward until we agree that every human has a right to a share of the planet’s abundance. Own what our choices say about what we believe, “Do I deserve that Armani bag while on the other side of the world a child slaves for hours to make it?”
Every human being on this planet should have enough food, clothing, healthcare, housing, & access to social comfort to thrive. If anger at Armani handbags serves that, great! If it doesn't, it's a distraction. What's happened to wages/QOL in the poorest regions over time? Why?

Well if we’re talking about the regions where they make Armani, some goods are still made in Italy, while others are made in Bangladesh. Though densely populated & impoverished, there’s been much improvement to their health, education & QOL in recent years. Was there in January.
