Isn’t that assuming you’ve already won and skipping straight to the end? Politics and policy are not simply a matter of deciding to do something. You actually need to have the power to do it. The rich have a lot of power, that’s why they pay so little taxes.
The working class have power, but a third of them vote for the rich and a third of them don't vote at all. The way forward is informing people on policy, winning over hearts and minds.
