To me the issue is caused by how we determine how much tax is paid.
If you're wealthy, you can structure your income in such a way that you are not earning any and therefore don't need to pay tax on that "non-existent" income.
It's also how the multinational companies structure their finances to make little or no profit except in the lowest taxing country around where "all" their "profits" are taxed.
In other words, we need to restructure the tax system globally to measure income and profit differently instead.
With the current crop of Neanderthals in charge, it's unlikely to happen in our lifetime unless something drastically changes. I'm not holding my breath.
The "use assets as collateral to get a loan, and loans aren't taxed as income" thing needs to be patched out. There are probably many other exploits but that one seems like an easier fix.
