This is simply a tax problem. This is how democracies work. They vote to give money to the rich. The evidence is clear. There is no reason that bitcoin fixes wealth concentration. It is a one time redistribution of wealth. You'll have the exact same problems if wealth is allowed to concentrate. Eventually, the people revolt and you get either a dictator or pure spcialism. Wouldn't it be better to just fix the tax system?
The top ten percent have $114 trillion in wealth. Ten percent of that is $33,000 per person in the USA. 30% pays off every cent of debt.
