If I could change one big thing, I'd make it such that each worker is aware of how much they personally have put into the economy via their labor and wage. Someone who works for someone else never really knows the true value of their work, just the wage that's paid to them. If we all knew the true value of our labor we'd riot.
When I was a fitness trainer for Big Corporate Gym, I was paid a quarter what each session cost for the client. I've come to understand that even this is an unusually high proportion.
