The real solution is to remove the classes so high above everyone that the rules don't apply. This is a difficult problem only because we're talking about people who are so ludicrously wealthy a fine for literal hundreds of millions of dollars wouldn't make them homeless.
I agree. John Oliver once referred to billionaires as something like a bug in the structure of the system, and I wholeheartedly agree with that analysis. Unfortunately, they're a bug that's not so easily dislodged. Until then, designing systems that are able to deal with their existence is the best way to deal with them.
