Wealth Redistribution

In March 2020, $1,200 appeared in 160 million American bank accounts — no application, no conditions. Was it the smartest economic move in modern history, or the opening act of an inflation crisis? This lesson unpacks the economics of redistribution, UBI, and why the answer is never as simple as just giving everyone money.

📘 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

• Why inequality isn't just about effort — zip code, health, and school quality create structural disadvantage that redistribution is designed to fix
• How the three layers of redistribution work: market rules, taxes and benefits, and voluntary philanthropy
• Why 78% of Swiss voters rejected $2,700 a month for every citizen — and what their reasoning reveals about UBI
• Why redistribution done wrong creates bigger problems: talent flight, poverty traps, and hidden inflation taxes
