In this thread we post our most :LIB: takes, and discuss whether that is the logical end point on a given topic or whether we need to lose that last bit of liberalism.

    I've thought about this a lot, but the problem is, anyone who could earn more in the US would just go to the US, which is precisely what's happening now, so unless the US collapses or something, this isn't gonna happen

      I was thinking more about far future, utopian goals than what I think we could realistically do in the next few decades.

      But to the problem of developing the Global North and incentivizing brain drain from the Global South, I think the only solution to that some form of wealth transfer back to developing countries with no direct benefit for the developed countries providing that wealth. That's something that might be possible in the near term.
