Can you name three? In any case, a good economist typically just says what the state of the world is or will be given x, y, z, not what should be. I can think of one economist (Robin Hanson) who doesn't say "we should reduce financial inequality".

Here are four - Era Dabla-Norris ; Kalpana Kochhar ; Nujin Suphaphiphat ; Frantisek Ricka ; Evridiki Tsounta.

They work at a little organization called the International Monetary Fund, and they conclude:

"We find that increasing the income share of the poor and the middle class actually increases growth while a rising income share of the top 20 percent results in lower growth—that is, when the rich get richer, benefits do not trickle down."

Friedman, Piketty, Stiglitz, Krugman.

I see what you are saying, though-- the exact prescription may not be something any of these four have said, though they certainly detail the consequences of inequality.
