I consider it a bigger root issue. Once you understand this concept, understanding the others becomes more clear.
Fordy, do you not understand the absolute impossibility of an equal start in life? Do you plan for every child to have the same parents with the same income? That's a rather communist direction, wouldn't you say?

Yes, I am aware of it. Even with an estate tax, the wealthy still have the upper hand throughout the life of the parent. I'm not saying 100% estate tax is the solution to fully solve it, but I believe it would make a hell of a difference.
If anything, ingenuity should be rewarded, not just the pure luck that you happened to be born into a better-off family.
