Valuing productivity is already reducing U.S. inequality. Lawyers and doctors can’t prevent people from getting better educated nor can they completely bar technological advances. Sure they can take short-term measures like regulating DNA or law-tech companies, etc. But many people have an inherent desire to get higher quality health and legal help for cheaper. Regulators can’t and won’t ever completely stop the decentralization movement.
