Same with my idea to reign in the damage caused by the darkweb... For these guys, the money is always made by keeping the problem, not solving it. We need a class of rich folks who aren't in the habit of obsessively protecting their wealth, but believe more in the importance of their own legacy.

Why not just no have billionaires, their wealth spread more evenly would be even more creative and caring.

Well, sure, if we're talking fantasy... But I think, given your hesitation by putting the word "more" before "evenly" you probably understand the risk and impracticality of enforcing a "total wealth equality" economy. 😉

We don’t want “total equality” of wealth. We just want all equity in the direct control of workers. Worker-owned (or at least majority owned) enterprise. Government that facilitates rather than thwarts that. We want to keep all of our surplus labor value. We don’t need capitalists, they need us.
