I think inheritance is immoral and should be scrapped or severely restricted. CMV

To me, the notion that a family should gain control of a loved one's possessions after they die is unethical. The idea that people have some inherit right to land and/or money because they just happened to be born in the right family is wrong. I think a person's wealth in an ideal world should be proportional to how hard they work and how talented they are and the idea of an inheritance goes against both these things. It is an example of someone gaining something for nothing just because of their class and leads to a culture of a wealthy elite of old money families which have a disproportionate amount of wealth and power due to the nature of their birth. I think that the state should gain control of assets (at least above a certain threshold of wealth) after death in order for the money and land to be utilised in a manner beneficial to society by democratically elected officials.

There's no way to enforce this; people could just set their wealth in an offshore account, gift it all before death, invest it in physical goods that can be later sold and then gift that... definitely too much room for abuse by the rich and then the poor don't get to give their children any leg up from where they were during life (considering that, surprise, even the job market isn't a strict meritocracy, otherwise the concept of "paying your dues" would be ridiculous)
