New on inequalitylab.world: "Firms as tax shelters: The disguise of personal expenses as business expenses", by D. Leite
Key finding: individuals who control firms shift 36% of their monthly personal expenditures to firms
Conclusion: inequality is underestimated; redistributive taxation won't be enough to solve the pb; we also need economic democracy

G20 leaders all agree that the super-rich should pay their fair share. This is a major historic shift.
The people have spoken. The leaders have listened.
For the first time in history, G20 leaders agree that the super-rich need to be taxed.
