How could Wealth taxes help cut poverty and unemployment

A “wealth tax” in South Africa could significantly address two of South Africa’s triple challenges of joblessness, poverty and inequality – provided it is managed by competent individuals and institutions, according to Guy Harris. He says that only quality education can address inequality in our society in a sustainable way, while a focused, well formulated use of “tax” proceeds could address a few percentage points of SA’s 36% unemployment rate and start reducing poverty for many fellow South Africans living on the edge.
