The first idea is solved by equal access to education. The second by taxing unearned income instead of earned income. And the last idea could potentially be solved by a small basic income. It would also help the first idea.
But merit is complicated. Success does not correlate with competence. I think it is easier to tax economic rent (windfall gains) that always is without merit.
