According to this site, Ignorance is frowned upon, but it is the prehistoric-like fear of Communism that, to me, is a blatant red-flag that people do not understand the true miracle that Communism could be for the World.
The biggest secret of economics is that Communism is a very powerful system.
Of course, in a sick and perverted system such as Imperialism, it is called, basically, The Devil.
Get educated and elect people who aren't in it for the money.

To add to this, Communism is a perfectly workable system, only that it has been tarnished when power hungry freaks decided they can take advantage of it and become dictators.

Hmm let's put your theory into another perspective, a hypothetical if you will...
You are an Olympic runner and are in the top 1%, you got to that 1% by training non stop every day since you can remember, you've sacrificed a lot to get where you are, to be the best you can be.
Now, someone decides that things need to be "fairer" for everyone, so a cap is put in place and you are not allowed to run faster than this cap.
You've sacrificed many things and spent a lifetime to be the best and now you're being told you can't go out there and be the best you can be because it's not "fair"
Does that sound right?
Would it be right to tell Usain Bolt that he can't go out and run under 10 seconds?
This is exactly what you are proposing by capping peoples wealth.
