"Our studyâs policy recommendation is straightforward: a permanent excess profit tax on oil and gas, defined as returns above a specified threshold. ... taxing only the 2022 incremental US profits would have yielded $225bn ... enough to nearly double American clean energy investment that year."

2025 war ein Wahnsinnsjahr fĂŒr die deutschen MilliardĂ€re: Ihr Vermögen wuchs mit 30 % fast doppelt (!) so schnell, wie das Vermögen des Globalen DurchschnittsmilliardĂ€rs mit 16 %. Dieses Wachstum ist absurd gefĂ€hrlich, weil es die Ungleichheitskrise weiter verschĂ€rft.
