War
There is a war going on today between the Nobility and the Genius born in poverty.
Nobility defined is anyone who has control and or influence over capital through circumstance of birth.
In a free market capitalist economic system capital generally flows
toward the individual who makes the most productive use of it. Thus
capitalism is fair. Wealth is held by those who earned it, while those
who manage it foolishly will soon find their capital slipping from
their hands toward those able and willing to use capital for a more
productive purpose.
Those who inherit capital (i. e. the Nobility)
recognize the competition they face from the common laborer who
possesses a higher cognitive ability. The nobility fears poverty. They
would rather start a war than labor for their existence like the vast
majority of the human race continues to do to this day.
Most wars in modern history are the result of the nobility attempting to hold on to their unearned capital.
If you think the above is an argument for abolishing inheritance than you are in error.
Someone who earns something through their own labor has the
right to do what they please with it. This includes giving it to their
children if they so chose. Besides, there are enough instances where
individuals use their inherited capital for productive purposes. Theft
is theft regardless of how you do it. We can't solve the nobility
problem by becoming thieves like they are.
The nobility will talk about divine right and genetic betterness. But it is all bullshit.
The war for independence from the king of England in the late 1770's
did more damage to the nobility than anything in modern history. To
stop the enlightenment of the masses the nobility created a political
system called socialism in the mid 1800's. Eventually socialism was
successful everywhere in the world in fooling the masses into giving
power to a fictional entity created by the nobility.
This entity, the "state" is said to protect the interests of the masses but in reality the opposite is true.
