So this week I was at the World Economic Forum, the annual gathering of the world's elite. It was a bizarre experience. Inequality is rising and rising and almost nobody in Davos was talking about the most obvious and effective solution: TAXES.

Anyway, they'll probably won't invite me again next year, but I'm glad I had the opportunity to say what needed to be said. | Rutger Bregman

If you were young in the 1990s, it was avant-garde to be cynical and nihilistic. Irony was cool, values were passé. If you’re young now, it’s avant-garde to protest and occupy, to engage and stay true to your values. Activism is the new realism.

Poverty is not a lack of character, it's just a lack of cash. And it's been so exhilarating to see this simple but crucial insight spreading around the globe! The NY Times recently published an article with a title that says it all: 'Guaranteed Income Programs Spread, City by City'. In the US alone, four dozen pilot programs have started since 2020. (see here: https://lnkd.in/e93qGdif) I was interviewed on Al Jazeera English about this hopeful trend – and about both of my books. Check out the fu
