I agree, but if we don’t account for wealth inequality, then we can fail to get there because our government tends to optimize for the already-wealthy at the expense of everyone else. This happens due to special interest lobbyists who make sure that every law tips the scales a bit in favor of their wealthy patrons (it’s like playing hungry hungry hippos on a table that tilts downwards toward the rich). The more inequality we have, the more greater the extent to which the government serves the interests of the wealthy class, which in turn exacerbates inequality. So we should make sure we are actually making more wealthy people and not just helping the already-wealthy grease the pole for others.
