I have noticed people harbor a lot of resentment towards those who got the best end of the birth lottery...they truly believe that money that has already been taxed once and is now held in trust should be taxed aka redistributed again and again and again. We had a guy enter paltalk one night and he was beside himself as he compared himself having to work like a slave while someone else was reaping the benefits of a trust. It never dawned on the sob that someone busted their ass for that money and it had already been taxed. He felt that not only should the income from the trust be taxed as ordinary income but the trust itself should be taxed as ordinary income. aka class envy.
