A low Gini index is bad as it means that the talented are not being sufficiently rewarded and the losers are being overpaid.
On the same note Uncle Sam..A low Gini index can also mean
....the rich and talented are hoarding their loot
-- tilt the policies to protect their loot ( removal of Estate duty Tax, thus enjoying a $300 million tax exemption)
-- taxing elderly for a miserable $3 processing fee for medisave transfer.
-- double the betting cost for the everyday folks who is buying some hope on Toto jackpot.
-- doubling or tripling the toll charges so that the ordinary folks who just want to enjoy some small arbitrage gains
across the borders will be checked.
For those you classify as losers or should rightfully be called ordinary folks
--- increase excise and liquor duties and dampen their joy to collect the extra $20 million yearly.
The Tax burden shifts to these poorer and ordinary man in the streets.
Better still, try importing 6 more billionaires and some 600 more millionaires so that our Gini Index can be stretch further to record level.
