The Economist nails it

[HHusky]

“Though rising total spending on the old is justified, a full-scale gerontocracy is not. Retirees with deep pockets do not need public handouts. On the contrary, they should bear a heavier burden as taxes shift from wages, towards property, inheritance and consumption.”

Time to stop engaging in this fantasy about lowering taxes when you have a society filled with old fuckers living on entitlements. The olds are too numerous and too wealthy overall not to be paying more.

Time for them all to move.

You can fly speck the sentence, but the idea that the numerous and wealthy should continue to be subsidized by the fewer and less wealthy does need revisiting.

I’m with you, but there’s just not the level of support for the idea we need.

You're contradicting yourself. I heard from you we need to raise taxes on the lower class.

So you believe that people should be taxed even more again when inheriting property or other assets that were ultimately paid for with after tax dollars in the first place.

Brilliant.

Assuming you’re talking about some sort of “fairness” concept, it should be pointed out that the appreciation on these assets was never taxed and that large estates are primarily composed of appreciated assets.
