I am not a tax expert (IANATE?), but with all the tax havens and multi-national businesses would they not just relocate? I am very much interested in the simplification of the tax code such that the burden shifts back to those keen on wealth extraction. I just dunno what that looks like as code and in impementation.
Maybe it’s because these generations of which I’m a part are struggling financially and will likely end up in the gutter due to crumbling support systems or because we’re staring down the double barrel of the imminent repercussions of ignoring climate change and the reinforcing systemic barriers to overcome it, but I just learned that “dust bowl chic” (and consent, already known) really does it for me.
I think in this context bullying can be expanded to its summative affect at the level of the society. This accumlative persecution is cultural and does in turn lesd to internal beliefs that one’s perceived deviance, as pushed by the dominant social narrative, is unworthy. There are studies that demonstrate societal pressures/persecution does lead to increased rates of suicide. This is most notable within marginalized groups supporting the point made above.
