This is a good point, but also a straw man. Very few people think there should be no government at all. Then we need to define how much wealth disparity is acceptable, and how we are going to measure it know we've reached the goal. Zero wealth disparity has never happened, so I'm assuming we're both talking non-zero here.
BTW, to the assertion that it's an incredibly small number of people being talked about; 41% this past year think the government is doing too much as opposed to not doing enough. That's the lowest it's been in a long time, it was 20 points higher eight years ago. So it's definitely headed that direction, but there are still a lot of people concerned about it.
