Return to pre-Reagan tax codes and laws. Bring back the 90% tax rate.
That makes you less a critic of capitalism and more of a critic of a particular set of policies within capitalism, right?
Everyone from Karl Marx to President Obama has said the same thing, we aren't going to change the system overnight. The funniest thing in the world is watching the local "revolutionaries" who have been screaming for overnight change for decades. Look at what happened in Russia after they kicked out the old Soviet system. A few guys like Putin snatched up everything at fire sale prices and the regular folks got less than nothing.
