What actually is needed is to reduce the size of the state and cut taxes.
That's all very well but low taxes tend to lead to oligarchy.
If taxes on income reduced and taxes on wealth increased we'd have a more level playing field and a route out of poverty for the working poor.
At the moment the rich stay rich on their untaxed, unearned income while the poor stay poor on their heavily taxed income, no matter how hard they work.
