” Their inheritance and wealth should have been taxed at a rate that forced them to work. The fact that the system allows people to live off old money and never contribute anything proves that there’s a problem. ”
First off, these people are more likely to invest and create jobs and opportunities for the rest of us than anyone else only because they have the money.
Second, why not start by actually removing benefits from the poor so that they are forced to go out and work really hard to survive, this will not only stimulate the economy, it will reduce taxpayer cost, reduce crimes which will make our country a better place.
I am not advocating for this policy, I was just using your line of thinking and applying it elsewhere.
