I think it is possible, but we need to raise (corporate) taxes a lot, and this needs to happen globally, as companies move.
As a star I would love to see global minimum corporate taxes, and then take it from there.
Isn't that something for the individual to decide, not the collective? Many derive from work a lot of meaning in life. If working is what makes some people happy, it would be nice to not punish people for working until they die.
> I'm not saying this is an economically easy problem to solve, but we focus so much on economics and so little on policies that make people happy.
Absolutely!
Spend less, save more. Vote for governments that do likewise.
