In recent years, researchers have grappled with the phenomenon that public demand for redistribution has not systematically increased in response to rising inequality.

Eine höhere Beitragsbemessungsgrenze soll die Finanzen der Gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung (GKV) nachhaltig stabilisieren. Begründet wird dies unter anderem mit einer gerechteren Verteilung der Beitragslast. Das gelänge auch bei einem entsprechend niedrigeren Beitragssatz. Tatsächlich geht es aber wohl eher darum, zusätzliche Einnahmen zu erzielen. Das würde aber nicht nur die Besserverdienenden belasten, ...
