Answer:

A. Implement a progressive tax system.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the progressive tax system, people who earn the most in the country will have to pay the largest percentage of tax from their income.

This can be used as a method to redistribute wealth because the government can use the amount of money from that income tax to fund various programs that can be used to help the people who earn less (such as medical aid, food stamps, loans to open small business, education, public infrastructure, etc)
