Yes, and it's simple and effective - Tax them and limit the huge transfers of intergenerational wealth. When the US had a robust taxation system with high marginal rates for the highest income levels, we also had the strongest and most robust middle class. It powered the "American Dream." Having individuals hoard billions of dollars and build familial dynasties isn't good for society as a whole.
In my opinion, it all begins with ending the system of legalized political bribery, getting dark money out of politics, and making politicians accountable to citizens again.

That's a good idea, I have a small sub (only 20k subs) and I kept it dark till yesterday. I don't want to give Reddit the satisfaction of taking it, but putting sticky posts for kbin/lemmy seems like the way to go. I think I'll post a user guide, too.

On that subject, kbin reminds me of the Reddit I migrated to after Digg killed itself. It's a bit trickier for novices to navigate, but the interface is starting to grow on me, and I suspect that will be the case for many.
