Today's Red Guard?

Seeing recent videos of The Red Guard rallies in connection the 50th  anniversary of the Cultural Revolutions reminds me of Sanders young supporters.

Recall how Mao dealt with inequality. Totalitarianism appears to be only effective solution to income inequality. However we all know how well that went.

 Taxation and minimum wage increases may help the poor, but won't raised middle class wages. I've suggested strengthening private ( not public) sector unions and greater corporate shareholder activism  to rein in excessive compensation. I also like the idea of  employee capitalism and a guaranteed minimum income for everybody.

What other solutions are there in a free society?
