Should Wealth Be Redistributed? by Steven Mcmullen

Should Wealth Be Redistributed? by Steven Mcmullen

Otteson argues that respect for individuals requires that government should usually not alter the results of free exchanges, and so redistribution is usually wrong. McMullen argues that governments should redistribute wealth in so that all have a minimal opportunity to participate in economic life.

"Both McMullen and Otteson are adept at navigating the ethical and moral arguments in the abstract, but each is willing to take seriously the problems of implementation and practical consequenceI enjoyed the discussion, and I expect that you will also."
Michael Munger, Duke University (from the Foreword)
