Education. Infrastructure. Health Care. Those are the basics. They are investments, and not simply redistributing the spoils of growth. But even with taxation, we can make changes. If I had to pick one issue, it would be using local taxes to support local schools. Seems like a good idea. But it then drives the educational segregation of people, of rich parents moving to rich school districts. Poor kids left with what they’ve got.
Why does it matter? Because environment makes a substantial difference in IQ. Because poverty poisons the brain.
Kids need a fighting chance. Material wealth, behavioral health, real opportunities—those are the basics. They will lead to a longer and a better life. (Neuroanthropology)
