have been wondering recently what my blind spots are, what are beliefs I have that are unexamined or based on too little evidence for how much I believe them ...

maybe there are common patterns, that people commonly believe false things and I might be challenged in my own beliefs this way

I don't know how exactly it should be implemented but Germany needs a serious inheritance tax. Tbh. due to not having it in the past a wealth tax might be advised as well.

I want to live in a world where a worker** totally can earn 100x what another worker earns, but not in a world where you earn 100x because of daddy's money. For that we have to get rid of insane inheritance. I also think this rectifies criminal generational wealth like the church or old noble families.

Let's be honest: Life is good in Germany so only few people actually complain about that, but it is a * unfair system and I can understand everyone who doesn't want to play in it.
