I enjoyed the wealth inequality panel. Great synergy between the contributions by Salvatore Morelli and Aline Muller, and the sociological reflections by Mike Savage, and my philosophical input.
🔜 Next week!
We are excited to be joined by Emma Chamberlain, @helenmiller.bsky.social, @maharafiatal.bsky.social, and @mikesavagelse.bsky.social to discuss why it is so important for the Chancellor to address current wealth trends in her upcoming budget.
