Thanks for this! Also check out Desteni org for discussions in Equality & Oneness from a practical perspective of living-applications to change the current system of separation and exploitation into a new system of equality as what is Best for All.

great interview.... An interesting point at the end when applied to Japan which has low inequality but a society that is big in to consumerism. Must read the book.
-
I have not seen the book, but, for those regions with high inequality, do the authors investigate the PROCESS by which that inequality came about? Seems like if the inequality is due to the higher-income people producing what others want, that's a lot different from inequality due to the political process (taxpayers being forced to bail out banks or auto companies that are "too big to fail" for example).

@Mike10four Well, that's funny because Marxism was never tried. Soviet Russia, before you go there, wasn't Marxist.

This is excellent!

@IconOfSin88 Even the more equal countries have been lately assaulted by the neo-liberal ideologies.

this makes perfect sense to me. the way the world is run today is obviously not working, so to support it or agree with it u must be rich, or atleast comfortably not to care. getting rid of this necessity to have so much pointless material goods in your life is a must to have a better world. :)

Good work! And I'm rather deflated that what is so patently obvious needs such in-depth 'proof'. As if this hasn't been crystal clear for hundreds of years! We humans are pretty slow on the macro uptake. Maybe we won't make it.
