This is a typical “attack the result” not “address the cause” response that we too often see from well meaning left leaning people. Look, I’m in solidarity with this sentiment - but let’s not throw the baby out with the bath water. We need to attack what causes the disparity, attacking disparity itself is only short term and potentially massively destabilizing.

The cause is collusion between political and private entities to insulate a mathematical minority from taxation.
Trying to change the narrative altogether while claiming solidarity is disingenuous bullshit.
“Hey that guy lit the house on fire! I have 4K video and a confession!”
“Yeah I saw him too! But did he really or was it the gas and the lighter? Who knows. We should look into it.”

You’re half way there - the other half is crony capitalism (regulatory capture).
The solution is dealing with those issues at the source, not the tail end.
I understand the desire to "punish" but that will only lead to terrible things.
