I'm ok with (realistic) inherited wealth IF the people who initially amassed that wealth were taxed fairly. But there should be a realistic limit to what can be inherited.

Billionaires shouldn't exist. Hell, anything over 10 million pounds is too much these days.

Don't forget how billionaires are noble and don't give their wealth to their children unless their children could earn it themselves

Don't you guys get it! My vibes based "source? I made it the fuck up" knowledge is way more trust worthy than statistics.
