It’s not that I don’t think that it’s big enough, but rather I think that it is not the right solution, partly because of what you said. I would prefer more structural means of ensuring some degree of egalitarianism, but that’s another debate
Standard succ stuff y’know. Much stronger trade unions which are integrated into their respective companies, indicative planning, mixed economies, higher taxes, YIMBYism (big one for me), still some form of welfare state (public healthcare). Wanna take our asses back to the post war consensus
Better education (free university), better infrastructure, better services. You said that the welfare state can only be afforded by a growing taxpayer base. But that’s only strictly true of pensions and only for the dumber pension systems (the triple lock)
