    Okay, Chris.

    When I first read the OP I took it the opposite, as promoting the left and rejecting the right.



    It constantly amazes me how some people can read things one way and insist their way of reading is the only way.
    It was a misunderstanding because of my English. I have had to read it a few times to understand it. Some expressions of English usually make me to think more to get the real meaning, because as they are expressed I usually understand the opposite. It happened to me in the last sentence of the part of the education.

    OK, well, if there are disagreements with the translation, or even the selection of quotes, that's what discussion is for.

    The Race Must Go to the Fastest, Not to the Fatherest

The idea of property freely available for use sounds like a utopian ideal that will never survive today's reality. To implement that ideal society would require taking property from current owners and reallocating to public availability.
    This thread is misleading and distorts reality. It covers up a hidden cancer that has destroyed all civilizations. None of these narrow-minded thinkers allowed by the ruling class can justify inheritance, so they never talk about it. What they don't discuss is what they are trying to hide. Inheritance tax still allows inheritance--even at 50%, Caroline Kennedy would still have $250 million without having worked for any of it.

    No bootlicker I try to get to defend it wants to talk about placing sons of the rich halfway to the finish line for the competitive race during their own generation. They want to hide that by talking about something completely different, that the father earned that money and can leave it to whomever he sees fit. But even in that slick rhetorical detour, the defender of aristocracy again ignores the fact that the son didn't earn it, so why does the father make so much of the fact that he himself earned it?

    But the basic thing the patrician wants to hide with this contradiction is that he is picking winners and losers in the next generation. He wants to think it's like giving his heirs some luxury items, which does have no effect on what the less fortunate get. So we must declare among ourselves that these Heirheads, including those in the upper middle class, are the natural enemies of everybody else. Despite the loud bullying against change, we have no obligation to accept this status quo and instead just meekly try to run the race knowing they will always win and we will always finish far behind where we should have. So we should break their legs before the race and make them crawl to the finish line from that halfway point. That will discourage the winners in a fair race from setting their own sons ahead of faster runners in the next generation, sending us on the next road to serfdom.

    This plutocratic palace feast is approaching a crisis. The Millennial Generation can't even brownnose their way ahead; there are enough spoiled richkids now to fill all the good jobs and exclude everybody else. The second difference from previous generations is that those who didn't brownnose no longer will feel guilty about it. Their intimidated refusal to take pride in having acted independently led us on the road to serfdom even more than the class-climbing traitors did.

    Yea, yea, it's all lie. If you want to discuss inheritance start a new thread. That's about all I get from you Jackson pollock prose.

    You're pathetic in your attempts, howey. But we don't source pictures. The quotes are sourced.

    Did you have anything intelligent to say about the topic?
