We are in an inequality emergency, and there are ways to lessen it.

Rule 1 of the global tax system is you tax multinational corporations where they SAY their profits are, not where they MAKE profit. Most countries backed flipping this 100-year-old rule in recent UN tax talks, to finally end the era of global tax abuse

💡Extreme wealth concentration was created by policy choices.
@jayatighosh.bsky.social explained the #g20 action roadmap to reverse it, in @projectsyndicate.bsky.social:
✅ Monitor inequality like climate change
✅ Close tax loopholes for multinationals & the super-rich.

🚨The rules are rigged. 1% captured 40% of global wealth, while half the world got just 1%.
.@g20org leaders recognize inequality is tearing societies apart, @jayatighosh.bsky.social said to @aljazeera.com.
The solution? An International Panel on Inequality (IPI) to track real progress.

Our co-chair @jayatighosh.bsky.social will have a simple message when she speaks to #g20 leaders tomorrow:
"Wealth inequality has exploded, a few players have exercised inordinate power not only on global economy, but global politics, information, society".
