Redistribution of wealth is an anti-marxist technology.
Taxing the super-wealthy and redistributing the proceeds towards education, health care and infrastructure makes it possible for the middle class to survive.
Otherwise, the marxist prophecy will come true.
"No sooner is the exploitation of the labourer by the manufacturer, so far, at an end, that he receives his wages in cash, than he is set upon by the other portions of the bourgeoisie, the landlord, the shopkeeper, the pawnbroker, etc.
The lower strata of the middle class — the small tradespeople, shopkeepers, and retired tradesmen generally, the handicraftsmen and peasants — all these sink gradually into the proletariat, partly because their diminutive capital does not suffice for the scale on which Modern Industry is carried on, and is swamped in the competition with the large capitalists, partly because their specialised skill is rendered worthless by new methods of production. Thus the proletariat is recruited from all classes of the population."
Read what Marx had to say about things if you want to avoid the marxist abomination.
Marx's idea of revolutionary progress was based on the notion that property, hence wealth, must be abolished. Abolished, altogether, and not redistributed!
'Redistribution of wealth' means everybody pulling their own weight/contributing their fair share instead of 'the the already rich taking the lion's share'.
Redistribution of wealth means preserving the concept of property/wealth and maintaining the functionality of the capitalist free-market.
