Airlines flying empty planes to keep flight slots during coronavirus outbreak

The wording of your question confuses me, it's not clear whether you're asking about "large individual concentrations of wealth" as a cause or effect of "economic anything", aka are you asking how one can achieve economic anything without a pre-conditional individual concentrations of wealth or are you asking how one can achieve economic anything while avoiding the subsequent trap of large individual concentrations of wealth.

In context and logically I would assume the latter as those large concentrations are why you get large organisations to manage them, but I wanted to be sure.

I had not considered moving the question to either end of the bookshelf, is it concentrations first and then economic action, or economic action and then large concentrations. Instead of waiting for the boolean T or F on which it is, we could answer both and see:

"One needs money to make a business." (not possible without large concentrations of wealth, business as a result of wealth)

"Businesses occasionally make people super wealthy." (happens as a result of economic action, wealth as a result of business).

Does not the reaction halt if there is not enough wealth to make a business?
