The global economy generates immense fortunes for a super-rich elite. Yet at the same time pay stagnates for ordinary workers, food banks proliferate and public services collapse around us. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eEnough\u003c\/i\u003e, Luke Hildyard argues that far from being the hard-working and productive entrepreneurs that they claim to be, the super-rich are an extractive, parasitic force sucking up a vastly disproportionate share of society's resources - making the rest of us all poorer as a result. \u003cbr\u003e Politicians make absurd promises about economic growth while ignoring the solution that's staring them in the face. Enough shows that a major programme of taxes on the rich and economic reform could be used to get the wealth of the one per cent flowing instead to the workers who actually create it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eLuke Hildyard\u003c\/b\u003e is the Director of the High Pay Centre, a UK think tank focused on pay and employment rights.
