Moyn argues that the old hold a disproportionate amount of the wealth and power, and that they generally act in their self-interest at the expense of younger people. We also discuss his proposals for fixing this problem.","meta_description":"You can support me on Patreon: ht tps://www.patreon.com/chenphilosophy Samuel Moyn is Kent Professor of Law and History at Yale University.
