_From_what_I_can_gather from Ryan's blathering, this is exactly what he
is advocating.  His theory is that once EVERY rich man has distributed
$1.98 to everyone in the universe, then we will have utopia because all
will be truly "equal".... no _classes_.  His definition of class is
based on who has the most money because he perceives money as power.
Further, he perceives himself as powerless because he has no money and
is angry about that.  Rather than resign himself to a work ethic in
order to achieve a higher status himself, he focuses his anger on the
rich and would lower them to his own level.
What he won't admit seemingly, is that once we have achieved this
utopia... make that _forced_ this situation, we'll never _achieve_ it
and it certainly wouldn't be utopia, the process will start all over.
The lazy will squander their newfound status, the ambitious will work
hard, and the two "classes" will seek their own common denominator.
Utopia lost!!!
BTW...  I addressed this to you because I felt you would understand it.
So far, Ryan has succeeded only in bitching about his plight in life
without proposing a logical approach in resolving it.
