contents In capitalist societies, only a single right can be fully exerted without constraints of any kind: the limitless accumulation of wealth. Such imperative or prime axiom is the ultimate cause of the raising waves of inequalities observed today. In this work we extended the agent-based model proposed by Castro de Oliveira arXiv:1711.06164 to study the effects of non-uniform income redistribution policies and tax evasion on the final steady-state wealth distribution of economic agents. Our simulational results strongly support that well designed policies of income redistribution and rigid control of tax planning possibilities are unavoidable instruments to promote the raise of more economically egalitarian and sustainable societies.
