interesting
the other day i was noticing that the countries that do the best job of moving money from the rich to the poor are the wealthiest countries. and the countries that do the best job of moving money from the poor to the rich are the poorest countries. one wonders which if either is the cause and which is the effect. ie are countries wealthy because their social economic policies elevate the masses? or are rich people in wealthy countries more generous with their wealth because they can afford to be?
