Rich people's children don't necessarily inherit (let alone develop further) any of their merits yet have all the wealth leaving huge numbers of people in poverty. The latter have potential they could have had developed for good of the society but they are doomed to waste it. Perhaps limiting how much can one person inherit could solve the problem, perhaps not.
