I'm thinking that one of the most disruptive things we could do is to invest our money in nonstandard channels. For example, promote systems that solve problems once and for all through research and then place the solutions into the public domain. A handful of engineers working over the span of months or a few short years could automate everything from wifi mesh networks to drone delivery to robotic home gardens. In a very short time we could remove basic need dependency from the system. Kind of like "a penny saved is a penny earned" on steroids.
Once people are not dependent on a system that tends towards wealth inequality, it would give them the leverage to demand a basic income because they could choose to no longer buy the goods and services from which the 1% derives its income. I'm not saying that members of the 1% are bad, just that whatever benefits they bring society will likely be commoditized like everything else when full automation provides cheaper (or free) alternatives.
Look at the stories of alternatives energies.
The trick is here, I think too, but really hard with no free time.
edit: Maybe the automatization of the expropriation of the 1% won't be captured..
But no, you'd rather people put in the effort they want, while arbitrarily rounding out the outcomes. You'd rather subsidize laziness.
Socialists don't make good entrepreneurs.
Might do something for a Mexican, won't do much for me.
