Leopoldo Fergusson: 'Colombia's tax code does nothing to level wealth distribution'

Associate Professor of Economics at Bogotá's Los Andes University, Leopoldo Fergusson, joins us to talk about the many issues that make Colombia such an unequal country. He also as provides us with some potential solutions, if the political and societal will exists to implement them that is. And while Leopoldo is very much Colombian, he tells us about the story behind his Scottish surname.  *For a related episode, check out our interview with Leopoldo's mentor and co-author of the influential Why Nations Fail, James Robinson, here. **Note on music: Master of the Feast by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution licence (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1400019 Artist: http://incompetech.com/
