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.

You'll need some data to back that up!

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