Relational Egalitarianism
The idea that equality is not just about money, but about relationships and social standing.
A relationally equal society is one where:
* no one is dominated by extreme wealth
* everyone can participate as an equal citizen
* mana is protected
* power is not hoarded at the top
This links directly to tax: extreme inequality creates social hierarchy, while fair taxation supports shared wellbeing and democratic belonging.
Relational egalitarianism says: It’s not only about having enough — it’s about living in a society of equals.
Visual idea: A circle of people standing at the same level, rather than a pyramid.
