And inheritance is one of the biggest source of inequalities hence why Piketty proposes a massive tax on inheritance to be redistributed equally as a universel basic inheritance to young people. There are hard core scientific papers behind it but this is a popularized article I have found: goodmenproject.com/…/fairer-taxes-and-inheritance…. Problem is inheritance is an extremely touchy topic, most people have the deeply rooted instinct to give everything to there children and can’t think rationally about it.
