@benroyce@mastodon.social I really like such historical perspectives. I also like the part of Plato's Laws where he says that the rich shouldn't have more than 4 times what the poor have otherwise social unrest will follow. He said it more than 2000 years ago.
Reminds us that progress is not inevitable, but is a constant struggle. In some ways, we actually regressed compared to some previous civilizations

@plantagolabs@mastodon.social @benroyce@mastodon.social I happen to be of another country than Sir Ian's , the one separated by a common language , and I claim and acclaim that treasure as well . Truly a world treasure !
