Voluntary things are moral by default Coercion is immoral by default The burden of proof is on anyone claiming that a voluntary thing is immoral

People sometimes will deny this and yet be in favor of the government forcefully taking from some people to give it to other people Which makes giving away immoral if it's done voluntarily but moral if it's done by state violence A difficult position to defend

Giving stuff to other people is not immoral Having stuff that was given to you is not immoral You 'deserve' it in the sense that nobody should take it away from you You don't 'deserve' it in the sense of having earned it yourself

being "proud" only of those things that you "earned" through personal labor and diligence is so puritan

In fact on purely consequentialist grounds you can also justify it. Giving your kids a better life is one of the most important engines of society.

I think all this deserving-what-you-inherit is clarified by just saying that you don't deserve shit yourself but your ancestors and specially your parents deserve that their life goals be respected If they built a better future for you, nobody is entitled to undo it
eigenrobot@eigenrobot

in fact the modal historical understanding is that there are no accidents of birth and all fate is determined by divine providence, karma, and so on the modern notion that your life sucks because strangers aren't giving you enough money is indeed novel

@eigenrobot I can report that this is also happened to me (I'm in my 30's, childless) Maybe this is caused by the long-term view you gain with age. You also spend more time thinking about these issues with age I believe

i'm not sure my experience is universal but after children i've become extremely cognizant that the extent to which i (1) exist and (2) was set to succeed had nothing to do with "luck" and everything to do with the deliberate designs and continuous labors of my forebears

@cremieuxrecueil Heh a 10% chance of the world literally ending is a bit higher than I’d have guessed Also betting that a pandemic will happen kinda sucks since your money won’t be worth anything if you win
