What makes a 'runner'?

I've always had a little voice in my head telling me I need to meet certain style, speed, and fitness markers in order to call myself a 'runner'.

Guess what? That little voice couldn’t be more wrong. If you run, you ARE a runner! 🏃🏼‍♀️

Ansvarlig kapitalist @petterstordalen: "Jeg tror det er mange som er enig med meg at vi må få en ny og mye mer bærekraftig kapitalisme som ikke handler om hvem som betaler minst eller mest i skatt, men en riktig skatt." Hear, hear! @Mills4Humanity @taxmenow_eu @PatrioticMills

Norway has a #wealthtax and billionaire @petterstordalen wouldn't want it any other way.

"We have the resources to help those who have the least, and I want to be there as a responsible capitalist."

Thank you @UniofOxford and @benphillips76 for inspiration and practical advice on how to fight inequality.

[Millionaires for Humanity @Mills4Humanity]

"For me, this is #inequality - why do we have 1B people living under 2 dollars a day? Why do 6M children under 6 years of age die every year? Meanwhile, the world's wealth is accumulated by a very few. This is not right. We should act now!" -@djaffarshalchi

[Louise Heegaard @LouiseHeegaard]

Happy Taxpayers? There are more of them than you think. @djaffarshalchi is surely one of them.

[Millionaires for Humanity @Mills4Humanity]

"We have... to go beyond philanthropy & recognize that we need to be taxed. No matter how generous & smart we think we are in our private giving unless we shift... to advocating to be taxed more, we're not living up to being for humanity" - @djaffarshalchi https://t.co/Ykfv09NIBQ

The key issue is… inequity and the over accumulation of capital at the very highest level of society… I think we will also be seeing social and political efforts to distribute national wealth more fairly @peter_laugharn @MoveHumanity2 @djaffarshalchi https://t.co/ueaJWqCjNq
