This article packs a punch. [[Alex Lamb]] makes an argument for a wealth cap based on network science. It starts with an unintuitive hunch and ends with a rational argument for an issue that is usually supported for moral, feel good reasons. I really enjoyed reading this. For more detailed notes, check out my page: [[Why The World Has Gone Crazy]]. The original article is here.

Next, I wrote put some code on github inspired by [[Alex Lamb]]. For anyone that has python installed on their computer, you can run the simulations with this notebook.

For more background on these ideas, [[Why The World Has Gone Crazy]] was the original inspiration. I tweeted at [[Alex Lamb]] after I re-wrote his code in python and he sent me links to this article and this video which expand further into his ideas on how information propagates through networks. I definitely recommend them if any of this has piqued your interest.
