I really don't get people who fight richness instead of poverty. Why drag everyone else down to your level instead of rising yourself up?
I think that people who would want to outlaw inheritance honestly believe that it would create a society which gives everyone equal chances of being succesful in society. I also think that they are simply missing the fundamental flaw in their ideas, not because of envy or resentment, but because of a logical mistake.

Also, there isn't really any point in asking me why people fight richness, because if you've been paying attention, you should know that I am not at all against richness.
