A flaw with many economic systems is inherited wealth.
This gives people an unfair edge over those who do not have it and thus makes the gap between haves and barely living greater and greater as each year passes.

I say remove Inherited Wealth.
Put that money collectively into the government pot and yearly disburse it amongst everybody.

Now people will scream about that.
Well this flow of money will generate trade and produce.
People will stop hoarding so much and actually put it to use into the actual working economy.

Every person will have what they have earned and the extra income will be exactly the same as everybody elses none earned extra income.

Do you agree?

No

jeff bezos is my dad. so the answer is no

i think i found the reason why the rest of the world thinks this place is totally insane, lol.

I have a lot of disdain for the ultra wealthy, but this suggestion is absolute bonkers, mate.

Elvis Presley my father, it's just my last name has more vowels in it's spelling and one consonant

So you all agree so far that people receiving an unfair leg up in life and the ability to dominate others and create global economic catastrophes (and good things too) based on inherited wealth is a good thing?

Your little Jeremy who maybe an intelligent well rounded morale person, who then finds their house repossessed because of the interest rates go bananas for whatever reason and all their work is wiped out because of an elite group of people are hoarding the wealth to ensure they stay in power over your descendants?

You think Little Timmy who is not 'the quickest' but likes stacking wooden pallets finds himself jobless and without worth because some inherited wealth person took over the company and wanted to say a few dollars so they can spend it on a coffee machine and comfortable chairs?
