Convince smart and capable people to avoid creating value. A really good entertainment technology or recreational drug could help. Propagate cultural norms against trying too hard/selling out. There are probably some ed-tech startup ideas that would gain adoption by playing well to cultural biases while making children less likely to succeed. You could also try to make capital markets skittish and reduce investment in productive enterprises by engineering a crash or perpetrating many large scale, hard-to-detect frauds.
Inequality is produced by engines of value creation whose fruits accrue more to some than others. The simplest way to reduce it is to break them.
