    1. For someone living in a marginalized country, on a few dollars per day or less, such a sum is worth far more than for someone in the imperial core.

    2. Taxing the rich, and other activity framed around the concept of redistribution, promises at best a provisional and shallow remedy for the deeper ills of society, which are born of the social relationships by which wealth originally is generated through labor.

      Your objection is as shallow as the remedy it challenges.
