It’s not fair, but it is hard to stop. People care for their kids. You can tax inheritance, but you can’t stop people buying violin lessons.

- jtbayly 5y agoWhat’s not fair is you telling me what I can or can’t do with the money I earn. I feel like that’s pretty deeply ingrained in the idea of fairness.
- AussieWog93 5y agoI don't think he's saying that we should make it illegal to give better opportunities to your children. He's just pointing out the fact that some children are born into poverty and there's no simple justification ("they don't work as hard as the rich kids", "they made poor financial decisions", etc.)
- jtbayly 5y agoYeah, I meant to reply to the grandparent.
- EricDeb 5y agoNo one is telling you what to do with the money you earn. If you don't like your country's taxation system feel free to immigrate to another.
