Putting people in jail who commit large scale fraud would be a great start. Not passing bills again and again that just do this over and over would be nice as well.

Getting people to pay their share of taxes would be great, but I would be happier if they started paying employees better, especially those that rely on social programs to make up the slack. Employees making more money will pay more (or start to pay) taxes and can afford to spend more on goods and services. Sounds like a positive cycle that makes everyone's life better, but greed is so out of control that I don't see how we can make this happen.
We can vote with our wallets but there are entire industries that rely on cheap labour to make their billions that doesn't trickle down like promised.
