You’re probably not even kidding, it’s part of a good solution. However, take a 360° look on the other aspects of this solution:
- We seek to raise every person in poverty to the average consumption level. Through charities, political programs, etc. Should we stop?
- If you don’t drive people to earn, you don’t drive people to work. And you get a dysfunctional society which consumes a lot but does not produce a lot.
- It’s the same philosophical problem as if you started to be fair towards men, then they’d stop striving. I assure you that you don’t want that.
- Would you be ok with solving climate change at the expense of other social targets? If not, congrats, you’re a leftist not a scientist.
