Perhaps there ought to be something like a maximum delta of inequality, whereby nobody is allowed to become richer than a hard-coded number of times the earnings of the lowest-paid workers. Then if the fatcats wanted more the only way they could get it would be by improving the lot of the people "beneath" them.

@llamasoft_ox I saw a suggestion that if you got to $999,999,999 you got a little plaque saying "you win Capitalism!" and then you have to give the rest away - the number doesn't go higher than that.

a stinky ox 🐂

@TomF yeah, bring on maxint! Even have it so it wraps round to a negative value if you continue to increment 😀

@llamasoft_ox @TomF Spoken like a true arcade aficionado :)

$100 million is more than anyone sane needs to live the rest of their life in comfort. If I had that much money, I could safely give away a little.
