Is it fair that the median person in the West owns wealth of $60,000 while the average wealth of the super-rich is over $77 million?
Is it fair that the wealthiest pay an effective tax rate of around 21% on their capital gains income while a senior nurse pays more than that on their salary?
Is it fair that a UK renter on an average income pays more than one third of everything they earn just to live in someone else's flat?
Is it fair that 300 US billionaires gave a combined $3 billion to elect the people who set the tax rates they pay?
Is it fair that we lose a trillion dollars every year to tax loopholes of the super-rich?
Is it fair that an 18-year-old today faces a minimum of 30 years before any plausible policy intervention could return us to the equality we enjoyed just 50 years ago?
If you think it´s fair, then you won´t like this book.
The K-Bomb does not just describe the massive inequality gap between the super-rich and the rest of us.
It explains where it´s heading. And what is inevitably going to happen soon if we don´t do something about it.
THE PAST: Have we been here before? How was it corrected?
THE PRESENT: What are the signs of instability we are seeing today? How are they directly caused by inequality?
THE FUTURE: What is going to happen if we don´t correct it now? How can we defuse the K-Bomb?
The K-Bomb is real.
It´s urgent.
It´s ticking.
