An inheritance tax is a solution for wealth inequality in the same way that picking at a scab gets rid of the scab. Sure, it might be satisfying to get rid of, but it only causes the wound to bleed more, a new scab will form, and getting rid of it isn't what you actually need, you need the wound to heal. If the wound heals, the scab will fall off, but picking at it only makes the healing time longer.
