The idea of taxing the rich is hardly new, but the question of whether it creates a fairer world remains highly contested.  This debate asks what would happen if we increased taxation on the billionaire class. Would it actually create greater economic stability and social equity? Or would it make things worse? Are taxes even aneffective way to redistribute wealth, or should we be looking at other models?  💬 Join the conversation in the comments.  Featuring:  Sanjit Dhami: Professor of economics, University of Leicester  Gustavo Flores-Macías: Dean of the School of Public Policy, University of Maryland  Martín Krause: Visiting professor, Francisco Marroquín University (Guatemala)  Pedro Solimano: Journalist, DL News
