I mean, that is the literal definition of fascism, didn’t you know?! It’s basically the same as anarchy, libertarianism, small-government fiscal conservatism, and the like. Everyone knows that’s what fascism means. Duh.

How fricking stupid are you?

You think it’s a good thing that families pass on wealth? I’m not asking about an upper middle class family; I’m talking about five million dollars inherited by a young person. You think that’s good? I think it’s terrible. At least 80% of the people I know who inherited real money are unhappy. It’s a horrible thing to do to most people. They didn’t earn it; they know it; and it robs them of the ambition to earn it. There are exceptions, like Donald Trump.

Society would work much better if we confiscated extreme wealth upon the death of the owner(s) and used that revenue to lower income tax. That way we would be incentivizing productivity instead of sloth.

So you asked how stupid I am? That stupid.

Wouldn’t it be up to Daddy to decide that?

Caesar earned a lot of money. How do you think he wants us to use it?
My proposal is almost 180 degrees from communism, and it is more capitalist than our current system. I would lower income tax, and excite the animal spirits of entrepreneurs. Then, when they die I would tax their wealth to make the lower taxes during their lifetime possible. That’s more raw capitalism than we currently have.

Your taking money away from people against their will, it's not yours to determine if they burn it, wipe their arse with it, or give it away. How in the world do you think "redistributing wealth" is anything but communism/socialism?

Why would you not want your family to inherit your earnings?

Someone should ask that skank point blank just whose money is it.? It damn sure isn't yours.Who are you to decide? You can go to hell with your redistribution bullshite and your Commie economics. Fascism is the state seizing that money. and deciding what to do with it.

Society would work much better if the penalty for people who advocated confiscation of private wealth was death.

I’ve pointed out twice in this thread that I am not aiming this at middle class people. So the gift laws that are in place today would still be applicable.

As far as being jealous, I could be; it’s possible. But I am in the top 0.5% of wealthiest people in America. And that is a VERY conservative estimate. I have three homes on two continents and I fly GA about one third of the time. I am a little jealous of those who can afford to fly GA all the time. Everything else I want I can buy.

I’d like to come up with a way of confiscating anything above maybe a million dollars per kid.


We have to rid our society of people like you.

I know you said that you are wealthy and this would really affect you, but no one believes that.

If you have so much money and believe in that way, why have you not already given almost all of it away?

Nothing stopping you from giving it all up and limiting your living to $45,000 per year. Why don't you?

It’s Daddy’s money. He doesn’t get a say what happens to the money he earned? Maybe Daddy has seen lifetime of government waste and feel-good programs, and he doesn’t care to have people like you “confiscating” it, and giving it to people the all-knowing government thinks is deserving.

So you know 5 inherited wealth people and 4 are unhappy? I doubt you run in this circle.
The people I know that inherited money are extremely happy, and I know many. Maybe a few are losers, the rest are good people doing great things with their money.

Most of the people I know have successful children, with a plan to pass it on generationally. On the other hand, congress will take your taxes, washes it through programs and projects so they, and their family and friends, can make millions that a portion is kicked back to them. Pass.

LOL. Work hard and do what you want with your money, leave mine alone.
