Exactly, simple rule changes like that could radically alter society. Not that I agree or disagree, but that example does support the main point, the rules mat

  Oh its almost certainly a terrible idea (at least if done that drastically) if for no other reason that massive upheavals of the status quo tend to harm the poor the most. It is just yes an example of the sort of "fundamental" of our economy that's actually just the result of some rules we made ourselves, not something inherent in capitalism or free markets. Less drastically you could make employee/consumer owned businesses dramatically more tax advantaged giving them an economic edge and then just seeing what happens. Might turn out awful but its certainly possible.

    Yup, exactly my suggestion elsewhere in this thread.
