It's not just law enforcement, it's the political system that controls the law enforcement, and the voters who elect that political system. Most Americans really believe that wealth is earned and that strong measures to reduce wealthy peoples' wealth are morally wrong, so anyone who tries such a thing by political means will fail quickly at the polls, and anyone who tries by extra-political action will fail because the whole system, including law enforcement and a large chunk of American society, disagree with them and will oppose them. Heck, a significant portion of American society actually believes that wealth shows that God loves someone, and wealthy people are blessed by God!
IMO, if you really believe that high wealth inequality is a bad thing for society, your best bet is to simply move to another society where your values are more in-line with the people and social structure there.
