Oh cool! Another dystopian policy idea! My first thought was, doesn't the person advocating for this realize they are rooting for the bad guys in the film? Then I realized, in science fiction, the bad guys often don't realize they're the bad guys. They are industrialists, or wayward idealists, or Ayn Randian capitalists. They are made villains by their philosophical tunnel vision and the belief that money is more important than human suffering.
