Extreme wealth hoarding is an inherent end result of capitalism, which we could eliminate by capping wealth and channeling all excess income directly to public use. This would not be easy AT ALL because of the political opposition (which is mostly conditioning). But we won't do it, instead we will wait until the problem gets so bad it causes a revolt and then we'll blame the revolters.
