Ingrid Robeyns (1972) is an economist and philosopher and professor of Ethics of Institutions at Utrecht University. She is the founder of limitarism. According to Robeyns, we need to move towards a system in which the strongest shoulders actually carry the heaviest burdens and inequalities are curtailed. The excess money of the super-rich can bring a lot of good to people and society. And in the end, everyone benefits from that, including the super-rich themselves.
