Attack poverty by prohibiting inheritance and giving people a hand up, not a hand out

Created by J.A. on November 17, 2014

In the US, the gap between the richest and poorest sections of the population has never been wider, and is widening. Once people become super-rich, their wealth becomes inherited for generations, allowing for greed and laziness.

By extracting some of this wealth and integrating it into communities that are stricken with poverty, education and employment can be used as a tool for reducing this wealth gap and improve conditions drastically.

A radical shake up of poverty policy is needed. Let’s strike down unnecessary inheritance and refresh the system with the most ambitious people getting the deserving opportunities.
