Yeah, I’m fine with questioning heritable wealth, but it should be across the board. We shouldn’t chop up the middle class’ heritable tokens while letting the upper class keep theirs. That just makes things worse.

  Not all heritability is identical nor are their side effects. A literal caste system is worse than generational wealth transfer. While one may gave an advantage to their off spring the previous effectively restricts others and is way unhealthier for society. Just treating it like factions where just whose team is good for isn't a very healthy approach.

  We shouldn't avoid chopping up one form of inheritable wealth just because we can't target all of it effectively or all of it at once though. It's a great evil that needs to be stomped on viciously.

I’m sorry to hear that you are feeling so upset about this. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t seems that way to most of the people, most of the time. Maybe somehow you can get to a place where your influence on your fate seems more real?

Hollywood is about who you know. That would be the same without the unions.

  Basically every industry is like that. Leads to my comment that at a job you get paid in money, experience, and connections. People fret about being underpaid and don't consider how bad it is being chintzed on the others. Especially the last one.
