Summary: Lecture 4: The Economics of Inequality The fourth presentation in this series was given after ZDAY London 2013 with an organisation featured on that day called The Equality Trust. The Zeitgeist Movement references thematerials of the Trust, and in particular the book the Spirit Level, when discussing the negative ramifications that wealth inequality has on human health and society in general. To find out more about the trust and the immediate proposals they suggest as well as helping to give context to this presentation it is recommended to watch Sean Baines presentation at ZDAY London by clicking on the following link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9KIkCem3Yg *Please note that the zeitgeist movement holds no allegiance to, nor agrees with any of the featured organisations points of view featured in this presentation series explicitly. Rather the purpose here is to use these perspectives to help illuminate some of the possible methods to help facilitate and illuminate the need to shift our values and economic system into alignment withour most up to date understandings of the natural world via the methods of science, thus increasing our overall adaptability to the planet and hence our evolutionary fitness overall.
