1. You can extend that argument like that, but I wouldn't. At least not to "there should be no rich people at all". But at some level of wealth, a difference in quantity (of money owned by an individual) becomes a difference in quality, and IMHO we should think really hard if we want that difference to exist in our societies. 2. I agree that an inheritance can/should be treated just like an income. And that's why I applied the usual tax fairness argument of "the more wealth you have, the more responsibility you bear for financing public services, because you have greatly (if perhaps indirectly) benefited from them." |
