So poor people can't inherit money from the rich because they're poor?
And rich people CAN inherit money from the rich because their rich? When do the poor get a chance to get rich?Does that make sense?

How will the poor ever get rich even though they try their hardest if the only thing they can inherit is more poorness since they can't afford the money to get high paying jobs, move, or open their own business?

Someone please answer these questions?

Yeah like no poor ever became rich. And btw I can testify by personal experience that you can go from being poor to doing fairly well. And this should be the goal for most people, not everyone has divine right to being wealthy.

But a rich wealthy family gets even more richer because they're rich. And the poor get poorer because their poor and their options are limited. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Poor people have more options because they have less money and rich get less options because they alreay have everything?

i don't understand the question.

Anyone can inherit money if it is left to them in a will or by law.
One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one.

Oh yeah, like you'd understand anyway.

You don't need money to go to school or even start your own business, the govt hands out tons of money for these things every year. Its just an excuse for these people to bitch and moan and never apply themselves through creative, hard work...

Well no one has divine right to be wealthy. No reason why someone who has everything gets more even though he doesn't need it, but a poor person is assumed to be lazy even though they honestly work their ass off in a small paying job.

I agree the goal for everyone should be to live fairly well and in comfort, but that's not the case in this planet. And yes I'm sure some poor became rich, but what happens to others who work their ass off and nothing ever pays off.

Has nothing to do with work. ...and yes rich people work hard. Its about applying what you know, making the right connections and taking RISK. Most people are risk adverse...

Hm, not my thing. Most wealthy people inherited their money, so they don't exactly understand the "poor living" experience. They blame the poor like they are lazy when really we all want to work hard and get high paying jobs. They got it all since birth. Lame I say!

Poverty in this country is a choice. Its the result of FREEDOM. People choose to be lazy, choose to be worthless
With FREEDOM, people are free to be lazy, free to be uneducated, free to be unskilled and free to be worthless.

If you arent happy with your low wage monkey job, spend time giving yourself the marketable skills that demand higher pay.
If you want to be successful, start making the right choices in life and quit whining.

The thing is that people can choose to do whatever they want with their money, you can't take away that freedom without degenerating into some totalitarian, commie shithole of where people would risk their lives to escape from.

This is not true at all. Of the top 400 wealthiest people in this country according to Forbes, only 30% inherited some of their fortunes...the other 70% are self made. So MOST rich EARNED IT!

BULLSHIT.
You can come into this world, in America,
dirt poor, and become super rich.
ALL it takes is HARD WORK.

Every poor person I've ever met has had
an AVERSION to HARD WORK.


No lazy bastard will EVER become rich unless they
hit the lottery, and then, you can bet your life
they will blow their wealth in record time.

B

People, all people rich or poor, inherit things and money because the things and money belong to somebody and that somebody wants them to have them.

Usually that somebody worked and earned the money. It is their to leave to whomever they want.

And very few proplr feel as though they have everything even if they are wealthy.

But it would make no sense for someone to take somebody else's money just because they were poor. Then no one would work to have any more than the bare necessities. I know I wouldn't to leave things to strangers who didn't earn them.

 Quoting: Bluebird


The problem is that de facto aristocracies are created in the process. There should be a cap on how much an individual can inherit. If Rockefeller was a self-made billionaire who worked hard for his money, good for him. But why should his great-great grand kid get to be a billionaire too by default?

In that scenario, money is just passed down from generation to generation, meaning several lines of people are removed from the original hard worker.

There should be a cap on how much a person can inherit, no more than X dollars.

No, you cannot. Only if a rich person has taken a liking to you and has no other heirs, which is unlikely.

The taboo which shall not be broken is that the rich mingle ONLY with their own kind, never the twain shall meet.
