Replay: Should billionaires exist? - a podcast by Ant and Jake

NOTE: we'll be doing replays and occassional hot-take updates between now and January next year, when we will release our next season!
The episode that started it all...Should billionaires exist? We explore classic perspectives from the likes of Nozick and Rawls and give some context on just how much a billion is!Old description: In this first episode, Jake and Ant explore the moral implications of extreme wealth inequality. Can billionaires co-exist with a population in poverty? When, if ever, is it right to takeaway someone's private property? Do we deserve the cash we inherit any less than the talents we inherit by birth?
