I've always been for inheritance taxes, but recently my parents revealed what I stand to inherit if they pass away. It's not a big amount but it just made me realize how strong the desire to protect property is, because all of a sudden I'm debating with myself if the inheritance tax is good or not, when previously I was like we should have a 100% tax on inheritance.
I read this article on Forbes that millenials stand to inherit $68 trillion from boomers when they all die, of course 90% of that will go to the 1%, but still a sizeable amount will go to sizeable number of people. So I'm really confused now because even Bill fuckin Gates says we need an inheritance tax, how do I have an even more bougie mentality than that parasite??
Anything introduced into capitalism as an attempt to compensate for it's failings is always going to disproportionately hurt the working class. Just remember that when you adopt a position with such certainty. The system is rigged to always be this way and the only workable method within the constrains of it's structure is to rig it right back.
