That is true. But there are degrees in which you can enforce this. I'm very much a proponent of the European educational system, where there are more fair educational chances for everyone (compared to the US). This creates equality of opportunity on an educational level. But I don't agree with high taxes on inheritance. That's not possible anyway. Rich business owners have plenty of ways to pass on wealth to their children without it being considered as inheritance. When you would have high taxes, or even discard inheritance, then you would only hurt the middle class.
