Piketty quoted in NY Times interview:

"Is there a politically feasible antidote? Professor Piketty notes that 
the standard recipe - education for all - is no match against the 
powerful forces driving inherited wealth ever higher."

Piketty in his book:
"To sum up: the best way to increase wages and reduce wage inequalities 
in the long run is to invest in education and skills." (p. 313)

To be fair, the book quote is about wage inequality, not the larger 
inequality of inherited wealth. But he does say endorse education as the 
best way to increase wages.
