I agree with all of your feelings, but the solution seems not to seek to gain capital from other people (the rich).
The real wealth is live, direct from the sun.
If we were to come round to worshipping that, rather than capital, all would be fixed.
When we create proof-of-work tokens from that, exchanging for money-as-debt (capital), we are devaluing capital, whilst adding value to money-as-sunlight, which adds to the economy, rather than subtracting from it.
Capital, actually could become pretty worthless, whilst also removing the energy burden from the planet.
There is infinite wealth in the sun, we just need to come round to accepting it, I think.
