And you’d be surprised that a poster in THIS THREAD has voiced that EXACT sentiment in a previous thread that contained such topics…

The intellectually honest thing to do is limit inheritability of property.

you don’t go back to the dawn of civilization. By limiting or eliminating the inheritability of property, you put all claims on equal footing: none.

So you are opposed to sharing an opinion here? Do you think people should only say things you agree with?

you seem to be bringing up things said in another discussion in a thread about whether those things are appropriate in the flight deck. I’ve never had a “morality of property rights” discussion in the flight deck, largely because it’s not appropriate.


so what is your point? That people with differing views exist?

I'm following and reading. The quote you posted, out of context by the way, appears to be within the confines of a discussion about taxes, finance and fiscal policy. I've had and seen many respectful debates about it.

Coming out of the blue with "I think the government should take all your money when you die because you are hoarding it" is aggressive and inappropriate. But sharing that opinion within the confines of a discussion about wealth inequality or social program shortfalls or fiscal policy seems just fine.

Of course. You appear to be shaming someone for sharing an opinion you don't like which was likely within a relevant discussion. That isn't what this is about in case you haven't been following along.
