The best way to reverse the capital hoarding is to deeply understand the way the policy making system works, not to debate the merits of different policies. Folks who believe in a wealth tax also don't believe in putting their noses to the grindstone for decades to engage in the high octane chess game of bureaucratic power politics. So it'll never happen.
