I seriously can't stress enough that we need people into this Revolutionary Moment to help bring change! We have a #HealthcareCrisis, #ClimateCrisis/#ClimateEmergency, #EnvironmentalCrisis/#EcologicalCrisis/#BiodiversityCrisis, #HousingCrisis/#EvictionCrisis, #FoodInsecurity,...
#HomelessnessCrisis, #WealthInequality, #Corruption, #EnergyCrisis, everything collapsing in front of us as our Nation is a Feudal Society where people are left fighting for scraps as the #Rich/#Millionaire Class have accumulated most of the #Wealth as they have no #WealthTax!

"Capital is back because low growth is back" @PikettyLeMonde said, stating that decreasing growth leads to increasing #inequality. If that would be true, we have a social-ecological dilemma #degrowth. I wrote my BA about it and got the #GSÖBW price for it yesterday. Thread. 1/14
Yesterday was #GlobalClimateStrike. Many studies show: The #ClimateCrisis can only be solved if economic growth rates in the North decrease rapidly. @timparrique, @g_kallis, @jasonhickel. If decreasing growth necessarily leads to increasing inequality, we have a problem. 2/14
True,since the 1980s economic growth has decreased in Germany, while income and wealth inequality have increased @CharlyBartels @MiriamRehm. But is it a correlation or causality? I argue, political decisions led to increasing inequality, not declining growth. Four arguments: 3/14
Just published article in @CCPA Monitor (ed.@StuJT) analyzing #inequality & low public investment as drivers behind #Chile’s protests calling for economic justice, and how such calls could signal a break in 40-year increase in inequality there & elsewhere

Since October, millions of Chileans have taken to the streets in defiance of their government, to demand change to economic policies first imposed under dictatorship, replace the dictatorship-era constitution, & challenge the state’s harsh security response

Chileans are protesting many types of inequalities & injustices
Income inequality in Chile, as shown by top 1% share of income in Fig.1, has trended higher than other countries, soared during the dictatorship (more than other countries) & has stayed high for last 30 years

Thoughtful podcast on what was probably the most promising experiment for #communism to ever work.
Many important insights:
1.) If you want an egalitarian society, politics need to be decentralized & units restricted <= ~150 families.
Interesting @nntaleb?

2.) Kibbutz were really very close to communist ideals. NO(!) private property, children were largely raised by the community to instill the right spirit, exactly #equal salary for everyone. At their peak, more than 5% of the Israeli population lived in one.
3.) From what Ran Abramitzky explains, they were in many regard great places. Good public good provision, little conflict and very safe for children, &being in the community is good insurance against bad events happening to you. Also most places were rather well off economically

Research question: How does immigration (of poor people) affect public policies? Immigration may reduce taxes and spending if it lowers native voters’ support for redistribution. This is so because immigrants typically don’t have voting rights.
