🚨The rules are rigged. 1% captured 40% of global wealth, while half the world got just 1%.
.@g20org leaders recognize inequality is tearing societies apart, @jayatighosh.bsky.social said to @aljazeera.com.
The solution? An International Panel on Inequality (IPI) to track real progress.

Our co-chair @jayatighosh.bsky.social will have a simple message when she speaks to #g20 leaders tomorrow:
"Wealth inequality has exploded, a few players have exercised inordinate power not only on global economy, but global politics, information, society".
It's time for action!

US multinational corporations are booking more profit in the US than they did before Trump’s Tax Cuts & Jobs Act but are paying less tax. $438bn more profit booked, $45bn less tax paid. And they didn’t bring jobs stateside #TerribleTaxDeal #TaxJustice2025 bit.ly/taxjustice25

I am a supporter of fundamental tax reform.

TaxJusticeNetwork has helped me understand international tax evasion and tax fraud for years now.

Strongly suggest you give them a follow!

The names of multinational corporations cheating on billions in tax were kept from the public. Our governments had the tax records but didn’t make them public. Doing so could’ve recovered hundreds of billions in tax.
