Thought: In his criticism, Bill Gates argued that taxing capital gains discourages investment and therefor economic growth. If investment is necessary, but contributes to inequality, then would it make sense to spread out capital investment? What if, while very large incomes on investment were taxed heavily (ie. graduated capital gains tax), small players actually had their returns subsidized?

Chugging along, this stretch of the book seems to be mostly concerned with summarizing the history and status quo of savings, and distinguishing the various means of accounting and the pros and cons of each. I dub this the "boring part", but I'm not falling asleep reading it. Reading just a hefty book over such a long period of time I'm sure I'm forgetting plenty.
