High enough to cover proper healthcare and education (including higher education) for everyone. Personal wealth should never be a factor when it comes to education and healthcare.
Right. But do you realise how high they would have to be to nationalise multiple trillion dollar companies?
Considering it wouldn't need to run for-profit, it would cost much less than their market evaluation.
I'm not the guy suggesting nationalising SoMe, and I actually don't think it's a good thing to nationalise that particular function. But shutting down for-profit driven SoMe would probably be a good idea.
