I forget the author but there was a pretty cool sci-fi story that had legislation to "solve" this. Every 100 years, an individual "died" and was "reborn" legally. They lost all their stuff, were given a starter account with enough interest to live on for several years and exiled from their home continent. Most people went back to school.
