   What are the limits to wealth?

   • There are two limits to wealth that we should consider: a political limit and an ethical limit. These are set at different levels. The political level is democratically decided and embedded in law and institutions; the ethical level is a voluntary, personal decision, where we can take our personal context into account.

   Why do we limit wealth?

   • The fourth reason to limit wealth is the most philosophically fundamental of all: no-one can say that they deserve their fortune. Many believe that what we can reap in the market is what we morally deserve. But this is a mistake. Wealth is, to a large extent, the result of various factors that we can in no way take credit for.

   Should wealth go to the people with the least?

   • If you’re a billionaire, each additional dollar is virtually meaningless, whereas if you are a person who is earning $2 a day, each additional dollar is really important to you. So, as wealth is created, that should make us lean towards favoring it going to the people with the least. Yes.
