i'd even go as far as to say that it is a goal for a great many people in life, and the standard position is that inheritance is a good thing, and that taxing it stinks...
...except perhaps if its very rich people you can not equate with, so you don't see the harm of taking 1-99% of their unfathomable riches and leaving them still having a fortune beyond your dreams.
- grondilu 11y ago> if its very rich people you can not equate with, oh, so you mean stealing is OK as long as it's from people you're jealous of? The problem I have with that is that it's a foot in the door[1]. You begin with taking from ultra-rich people, expecting me to be ok with that. And then you take from slightly less rich people, and then even less rich and so on until you claim it's ok to take from anyone who's less poor than you. So no, I don't want to let envious poor people rob rich people, no matter how rich they are. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot-in-the-door_technique https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot-in-the-door_technique
