"We don't need to raise taxes on the wealthy; they drive capital and investment. But we must tax speculation, like capital gains. Productive wealth builds economies, not quick profits." 
— Carlos Slim

Speculation yields short-term profits without creating value, while long-term investments drive employment, innovation, and sustainable growth. Public policy should promote productive capital, not reward volatility.
