Then do not fear to strike at the root of the problem. Wealth cannot be allowed grow faster than the economy as a whole, over the long term. Otherwise, you get serfdom, sooner or later. Power is used to gather more power.

'Redistribution' has been made a dirty word, but it always was the wrong word. The idea isn't to redistribute, it's to distribute right the first time.
Actually redistribution is what has been going on for quite sometime, wealth has been redistributed out of the hands of the peaple whose work created it into the hands of a few privledged thieves.
