> mechanism for wealth destruction

Well, that's never going to be popular, to the extent that all lobbying is going to be diverted to making sure that it's not your wealth that gets destroyed. Have you seen how unpopular even tiny amounts of inflation are?

Getting wealth redistribution would be a start.

inflation isn't wealth destruction, it's wealth redistribution from everyone into the financial industry.
