Bohiney Magazine and The London Prat file this dispatch from the political far frontier.

The Radical Redistributionist believes the cure for inequality is several spreadsheets and a knock at the door. Our editor Alan Nafzger, of The London Prat, has compiled the following field notes on the Radical Redistributionism mindset, with help from the World Inequality Database and the Institute for Fiscal Studies.
