I would say we are not. Because its not a convention that can be remade on whim.

Of course not, silly. That's where the guillotines would come in.

How about slavery? That'd be a good idea. After we've stolen all that money from the rich, we can make them our slaves. Only those who agree to be slaves, ofcourse. The others would have to be killed, ofcourse, since they are most likely planning to bring future harm upon the society. And since neither the wealth or the numbers of top 1% is sufficient, let's extend that to 10%. Sure, one section of the society is suffering unjustly, but over all everyone else is better off - so its all for the greater good.

That's the spirit. Glad to have you on board! Big Grin
