The Super-Rich w/ Gabriel Zucman
Update: 2025-02-28
Description
The world's wealthiest people pay very little tax. The oligarchization of the United States illustrates how the massive wealth growth of the richest individuals translates into political influence that undermines democracy. What do the incomes and fortunes of the super-rich look like, why are we unable to tax them effectively, and how can we solve this issue?
These questions are central to this episode of Pengeland, where we are joined by a true superstar in the world of taxation. Gabriel Zucman, an economics professor affiliated with the Paris School of Economics and the University of California, is also the director of the EU Tax Observatory. Over the past year, he has gained significant attention for his proposal on taxing the super-rich: a global minimum tax of two percent on their wealth.
Hosts: Jonas Veland and Kaja Guttormsgaard
