The historical process is already mediated through a continual competition for that position of influence. Give your average Joe a million dollars and he is going to lose it all within a couple years.
The stability of the social structure, with both its liberating and its oppressive elements, within which production chains exist, is reliant upon the discrimination (read, the distinction) between individuals who have the ability and the outlook required to work with wealth in a sensible way and people who should never have a large amount of capital because they wouldn't know what to do with it and would simply end up being exploited.

Re-distributing wealth seemingly gets rid of the hierarchy, with both those parts of it which are justified through differences in competence and those which are not, but the hierarchy of economic understanding still exists. In the ensuing free for all, the capital which you have given into the hands of incompetents is going to be appropriated by the most vile, corrupt parasites of the bunch, whereas even people who are merely competent will be hard pressed to compete if they hold on to their principles, and you will have created a true Hobbesian war of all against all scenario.

The solution to social inequality is cleansing the social structure of its corrupt elements, while still maintaining the hierarchical structure and giving people a better education and helping them to overcome their materialism/hedonism memes.

Philosophy is just an excuse for self-indulgence.
