This isn't necessarily a solution. Investing lets one multiply the disposable wealth they already have - but wealthy people have more, and can invest a larger percentage of their assets. I would've be surprised if the share of capital gains income is even more unequal than all income.

Low income people have an advantage because they don't pay capital gains taxes.
