An ironic feedback loop would be if murders targeted only the 1%, then essentially they'd lower the murder rate by thinning out inequality.

Probably the opposite would occur. It likely would have a "decapitation" effect on the economy and everyone would become poor --kind of like what we see in VZ, where industries were nationalized, owners skipped town, state didn't have the expertise and state exacerbated issue by not doing basic maintenance and upgrades. End result is more poverty and more murder, etc.
