But... That's like dengism with extra steps and money, if I understand either, correctly. 100 mn is not achievable by most, regardless of how hard they work. Assuming a 40 hour work week (which is too many hours, in my opinion), $100k/yr would require $48/hr pay rate. Deduct taxes at an assumed rate (say 30%) to cover cleaner infrastructure, education, health, clean water, social programs, how much is left? Even if we immediately nationalize all necessities for living, there are still expenses on both sides, bringing housing, water, food, education up to par, for example, on the government side, and travel, clothing (which is a necessity, in my estimation), pencils, books, computers, furniture, dishes, on the private side. So it's not going to be overnight, and with hours will be necessarily long, for a time. The current generations may never realize gains from our investments; but generations behind us may.
