•OnlineFTI: Is a wealth tax a good or bad idea?
OnlineExploring Fairness, Freedom, and the Future of Prosperity
Should societies tax large accumulations of wealth to reduce inequality — or does doing so risk punishing success and innovation? The debate around a wealth tax touches not just economics, but the deeper question of what truly drives human well-being.
Research shows that happiness tends to rise with the logarithm of income — meaning that as wealth grows, each extra dollar contributes less to overall life satisfaction. This insight raises an intriguing moral and practical question: if the wealthiest experience only slight decreases in happiness from higher taxes, could a well-designed wealth tax improve overall societal well-being without major personal sacrifice?
Join the Free Thinker Institute for a balanced conversation that goes beyond ideology to explore:
- The ethical trade-offs between fairness, freedom, and collective prosperity
- How taxation affects innovation, investment, and opportunity
- What happiness research can teach us about designing an economy that serves human flourishing
In the spirit of the Five Intentions, we’ll approach this dialogue with openness, curiosity, and respect — seeking understanding rather than victory.
