Here's the more appropriate question: Should Paris Hilton have her wealth forcibly taken by the state and redistributed?

It should be taxed at the time of inheritance and after. She can "enjoy" her wealth only because there is a society and working people who sustain her wealth in existence.

It's called a free market. People can either stay at a Hilton or somewhere else...personally I don't stay at too many Hilton's due to price.

Her "wealth" provides capital that enterprising lower-classers can use to move on up to the east side. It also earns income, which is taxed and used to fund the utopian dreams of those seeking "justice" here on Earth.

And she pays for the privilege, believe me, or do you think people who inherit "wealth" are never taxed again?
