People always do. You can cap what they make at the executive level. The tax system, especially inheritance taxes, can be cleaned up to stop generational pileups of cash. Most importantly, laws should be passed to only allow individual voters to contribute to politicians' campaigns with a cap that prevents the rich from outspending the poor. Tax dollars can provide the rest to candidates that make it past a certain amount of local voting. Strategy, not dollars, will win those elections.

Those would've achieved a lot. There's other ideas like preventing overlapping boards of directors where competitors are in cooperative positions. One can highly tax investments like high-frequency trading that are parasitic on the economy while low taxes on anything highly likely to benefit it. No or few special laws for big companies or the rich. Better balance of budget between social concerns and war department with more focus on education and infrastructure. Subsidizes from taxpayers requiring good terms in company's charter for employees, I.P. licensing, whatever. Many things we can do.

Perhaps wealth re-distribution?

Revolution is the final answer, as always, the majority will win no matter what.

Taxes, welfare etc slow-down/mitigate that, but that's not enough for the so-called 99%.
