This would seem to lead to a Harrison Bergeron sort of outcome, no? I mean, basic variation in genetic factors, geographic and political circumstances of your birthplace, these things directly lead to variation of productivity, which in turn leads to variation of wealth.

That's what the entire article was about.

Really? I didn't see anything about about wealth distribution via taxes versus other means.

Right. The article was about the social structures that cause wealth disparity to come about in the first place.

Maybe you meant, though, that we should be discussing plans to replace those with better social structures.

That's fair, but I admit to having a hard time imagining any that are not ultimately equivalent to wealth redistribution.
