To be fair, “liberals” do not believe that wealth should be inherited. That may mean any wealth, I’m not sure. The concept is embodied something like “the world belongs to the living, not the dead.” This would indicate that the idear is to prevent the transmission of wealth from one generation to the next, definitely not without the state being the middleman.
I'm not interested in being fair, just correct.
Wealth is property belonging to the person owning it. What a wealthy person does with that wealth is absolutely no business of our thoroughly self-serving and corrupt political class in Washington.
Anyone in favor of the Estate Tax is no conservative.
