What is fundamental to a model that accurately describes and analyzes what is occurring in the real world of people is a recognition that politics dictate economic outcomes (i.e., the distribution of income and wealth). Historians, including economic historians, have provide the details of how systems of law and taxation have always resulted in the redistribution of income and wealth from producers to non-producer "rentier" interests. The extent to which the laws and modes of taxation fail to publicly capture rents from all sources, relying instead on the taxation of earned income flows, on actual capital goods, and on commerce, determines whether income and wealth is justly distributed or ends up concentrated into the hands of a small rentier elite. This is the existing system in every society, each society differing by degree only in this respect.
