Thomas Piketty
“At the heart of every major political upheaval lies a fiscal revolution.”
Thomas Piketty, Capital in the Twenty-First Century

Daron Acemoğlu
“A businessman who expects his output to be stolen, expropriated, or entirely taxed away will have little incentive to work, let alone any incentive to undertake investments and innovations.”
Daron Acemoğlu, Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty

Daron Acemoğlu
“Economic growth and technological change are accompanied by what the great economist Joseph Schumpeter called creative destruction. They replace the old with the new. New sectors attract resources away from old ones. New firms take business away from established ones. New technologies make existing skills and machines obsolete.”
Daron Acemoğlu, Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty

Jeffrey D. Sachs
“Similarly, though the United States is one of the world’s richest economies by per capita income, it ranks only around seventeenth in reported life satisfaction. It is superseded not only by the likely candidates of Finland, Norway, and Sweden, which all rank above the United States but also by less likely candidates such as Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic. Indeed, one might surmise that it is health and longevity rather than income that give the biggest boost to reported life satisfaction. Since good health and longevity can be achieved at per capita income levels well below those of the United States, so too can life satisfaction. One marketing expert put it this way, with only slight exaggeration: Basic Survival goods are cheap, whereas narcissistic self-stimulation and social-display products are expensive. Living doesn’t cost much, but showing off does.”
Jeffrey D. Sachs, The Price of Civilization
