The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

And it's really important to recognise as much as, you know, the UK has become the sick man of Europe.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

And I don't deny that.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

Living standards have collapsed everywhere, Scott.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

In France, in Italy, in Spain, in Japan, in Australia, in America, in every country, living standards are falling.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

So yeah, look, I don't think the UK has done a great job of it in the last 15 years.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

And if you want me to put that down to two things, it's austerity and Brexit.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

But the truth is, this is happening everywhere.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

So I push more on wealth inequality in particular, because really, if you're working for your money, you've already lost, basically.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

It's about wealth inequality.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

I think the two

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

It needs to be taxes which aggressively go after the top 1%, not of earners, but of holders.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

Because at the moment, we have an unbalanced system, which does aggressively, in most cases, tax high earners, but does not effectively at all tax high holders, high owners, high hoarders.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

I think the two taxes which have the real power to get wealth back into the hands of ordinary families are wealth taxes and estate taxes.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

But I think when you bring them in,

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

The debate always tends to focus on rates, but really the question should be entirely about avoidance.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

How do we bring these taxes in in such a way that the super-rich cannot avoid them?

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

And I think, to be honest, the real way that you do that is exit taxes and tax on foreign owners.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

Because if they leave and they're still being taxed on their holdings of American assets or British assets,

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

then they can't avoid the tax without selling the assets.

The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway
The Economy Is Rigged for Billionaires โ€” ft. Gary Stevenson

And then that means you can get your assets back.
