A large and growing sector of the U.S. economy produces nothing of value. Nada. Zilch.

Crypto. Derivatives. Private equity. Every winner comes at the expense of a current or future loser.

Shouldn’t a rational society heavily tax this zero-sum work? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-economys-large-and-growing-unproductive#details

We live in a country of predatory capitalism.
I don’t see why we can’t demand that profit making corporations be socially responsible in some way. Their profit is made because they benefit from all of our taxes and because of their overworked and underpaid employees.
