Read this Reuters article about Norwegian wealth tax. Wealth tax is a intuitive idea for reigning in wealth inequality, but it also seems to restrict the flow of capital and motivation to start new businesses (especially damning for Norway, which is overly dependent on fossil fuel business). It also seems to target mostly the middle class in practice, which may or may not be by design. I think it's not really possible to effectively levy a wealth tax effectively without financial cooperation and unison between the OECD countries. If you don't like the taxes one places, you can just leave. Main point: wealth tax is easier said than done and comes with trade offs. I'm more cautious about the idea now than I used to be.

Can relate. I look at the face in general. It depends on how focused I am on the interaction. Eye contact is personal.

The skin is what I interact with daily. I feel and touch with it all the time. My bones aren't really direct experience. It might be skin all the way down for I know, just different levels of hardness. It doesn't matter to me.

The idea of media induce autism is pretty funny. You've spent so much time gaming and browsing, on they phone and not socializing, that your basically retarded. I think it's just another consequence of modernity, between increased technology use and the erosion of thin relationships (opposite of friends and family) and local communities by extent.

12/50 Impossible. Perhaps the archives are incomplete. Yeah, its bad at differentiating between autism and introversion. If I was more extroverted my score would be halfed easily. I hate obsessive and detailed thinking.

Migration is one of those policies that people tend to get ideological about regardless of the results. Classic social justice elitism. That's not to say that migration is bad but the implememtation of recent decades has created a general public stance against migration, at least in Europe. There was never broad public approval for migration first of all (contributing to resentment and a loss of trust in governmet). It's to the point that for mainstream political parties being strict on migration is essential more or less and will be for the foreseeable future.

How do you know? Our technology has never been more advanced and we are as conscious as we have ever been. That's just been the trend so far. If they have spacecraft they are probably more intelligent than us, even if the potential of their genome is similar to ours. They've just had more time or better conditions to develop their minds.
