content

Although the overall prosperity of our society has reached a peak, the differences between rich and poor have never been so great. So based Charles Fourier's idea of a proportional distribution, a partaker in each of the growing prosperity on an error. If one assumes, like Fourier, that prosperity would square itself for all strata, i.e. would grow exponentially , the gap would consequently also widen exponentially. Reforms aimed at solving the state from its social responsibility towards a liberal image of personal responsibility. Today, when full employment has become an ideology , one must not think about a right to work, but a right to an income . It is not the people who have to submit to the market economy , but the economy to the people.
