How about no, we let people do what they want with their money? My 2 goals in life atm and for the foreseeable future are to retire early with a nice nest egg, and to provide as best I can for my kids (and their kids) after I’m gone. I’ll be trying to leave them each a house with zero debt on it at a bare minimum.
I want my kids to be better off than I was. Every parent should want that for their kids. If the government ever tried to do a “death tax” or inheritance tax, I’d make damn sure I had nothing to my name by the time I am on my death bed, and my kids had everything.
