I heard a conservative claim that most liberals believe inheritances should be illegal. I told him that I was sure he was mistaken, and that the argument is over inheritance taxes on very large estates, not simply inheritances themselves.
Who's right? And should it be illegal to inherit money?

if you say that they are illegal, then nobody would be getting anything at all to do with family. no family pictures no family anything.
I read that comment and thought it was pretty stupid. I know a lot of liberals who have money and property they will be leaving to their kids or other relatives.
You are, because you called out your conservative friend on his ridiculous BS.
I suppose there might be about 43 people alive in the U.S. today who self-identify as "liberal" and who think inheritances should be taxed at 100%, but they're stupid and there are very, very few of them.

I have never heard any Liberals say any such thing, but then some here say a lot of stupid things.
Inheriting money is un-American IMO. But you won't hear the rich pukes who scream about welfare and unions admit that they were given free money off someone else's work.

Hell inheritance was legal, although limited - in the Soviet Union under Stalin!
This must be the latest right wing meme; inheritance taxes, like taxes in general, are theft and tyranny blah, blah, blah...
