Norwegians can have a relatively equitable distribution of income and wealth and good public services - and lots of them! - because they pay high taxes. 3/3

The annual return on the fund is about half a billion USD, while tax revenue is about 180 billion USD. Even if the annual return was put directly into general revenue - which it's not - it wouldn't come close to covering government spending. 2/3

I don't really understand what's going on but I gather the Iowa caucus system is no longer the quaintly charming kind of anachronism?

Anyone in caucus read "Basic Income for Canadians" by @evelyn_forget? Concise and persuasive no-nonsense treatment of the subject - highly recommended!

Yikes! Has any government ever deliberately cut revenues so dramatically? The scale of this seems bonkers to me.

Just remembered a funny thing about the background of the new Picard series: he knows *first hand* what it's like for one's entire civilization to be wiped out by the local star going all funny. It happened to him in "The Inner Light".
