dc.description.abstract | In this paper we propose a mechanism which decentralizes the creation of economic inequality. A personalized price for the public good/bad (i.e. economic inequality), determines the choice of disposable income by an individual. A perfect foresight equilibrium is defined, and a vector of prices which supports a utilitarian optimal solution is obtained. A by product of our analysis, is an income tax profile for the individuals which is compatible with decentralized distributive justice. | en |
