Wealth Gap Threatens Economic Stability, EU Wealth Register Hopes to Balance Taxation
The superrich have amassed vast fortunes, raising concerns about economic stability. This wealth disparity makes it increasingly difficult for others to earn a living, challenging the original purpose of our economies.
Economies were designed to allow people to accumulate wealth for secure, comfortable lives. However, current tax rules favour the superrich, making it easier for them to amass wealth while others struggle to earn a decent living.
The German federal government, in a 2025 parliamentary document, expressed concerns about capital flight and high administrative costs, leading them to refrain from reintroducing a wealth tax. Meanwhile, the EU is working towards a comprehensive wealth register by 2025, which could support more effective wealth taxation measures across member states.
The wealth disparity poses a threat to economic security. While the German government has paused on wealth taxes, the EU's upcoming wealth register could pave the way for more balanced taxation, potentially addressing the widening wealth gap.
