That sounds like a method of Marxist redistribution. Are you sure it would be great, or describe a perfect world?
I think most people I talk to (including this woman) do not hold the belief that wealth inequality is inherently bad.
The only environment without wealth inequality would be one with wealth equality, and it's easy for most people to see the implications of why that would be a far worse situation.
Therefore, I think most of the people that are "bothered by wealth inequality" are actually bothered by the association of wealth inequality with a system where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer in perpetuity. Basically, PoS or the fiat system.
It's hard for them to imagine a situation where the rich do not become richer simply because they are rich to begin with, because that's the system they've always lived in.
