Do you think it's wrong to try to level the playground here, at least a little bit?

It's wrong to do it through force. If you want to give your money and time to help the armless black woman, I'd be very happy.

I think you're attacking a straw man here, you're labeling me as a socialist, assuming that that is the framework and rules I operate by and I have no mind of my own. Please don't do that, we are not arguing between two opposite clearly predefined ideologies which somehow represent the only two possible economic systems available, this duality very seldom exists outside US politics.

Fair enough, but do you think whether or not someone creates value is irrelevant?

You're arguing that he reason and justification for those who have money, is that they created value to society by exchanging and creating something, right? What value have the children of these people created at the moment they inherit the wealth?
They have created value for their parents all their lives. A shit load of it apparently if they are getting all of their parents money. I do not think that I will personally give all my money to my children.
