If we logically extend your argument to include people in the rest of the world, then people in America will probably be as poor as them as well. Moreover, what would the environmental impact of such a policy be? Will we be consuming way more than what we are currently?

The purpose of having countries is to have a limit on where the laws/policies apply to. In this case we're talking specifically about the US. > Moreover, what would the environmental impact of such a policy be? Will we be consuming way more than what we are currently? If anything, its likely to be better for the environment. I don't think income equality means that people will just be buying more stuff (although that is likely to happen to a certain extent, just not enough to have meaningful impact); the way it would look is access to better services like healthcare, education etc.
