Date: June 10th, 2025 2:25 PM Author: out-of-control crackhouse yarmulke No, the record would presumably be reflected in some early king's accounts, or some mythical founding legend, a religious text or something of that sort. Instead it looks like English people were content to just act like cavemen, even after they formed governments and legislatures.

Date: June 10th, 2025 3:27 PM Author: Hairraiser Regret Yeah, that's what organically developed rules and traditions look like. But there has been constant debate over the details and what it should look like.
I recall the first several paragraphs of the Magna Carta are about inheritance, eg. how long you have to wait before kicking a widow out of her dead husband's house.

Date: June 10th, 2025 3:31 PM Author: out-of-control crackhouse yarmulke Laws change all the time though. A king comes to power and decides everyone should start driving on the other side of the road, or that women should be allowed to divorce their husbands, and it provokes controversy. At some point, the controversy gets settled through enactment of law.
That didn't happen with laws on inheritance though. The laws got written, but there's no record of any debate. No kings tried to shake things up and there were no popular movements against it. It looks like lawmakers were simply codifying what was already established custom. We tweaked the margins but that's it. |

because the natural state of things is that people pass their shit to their kids or the strongest guy takes what he wants.

It was so taken-for-granted that it was not even listed among the powers of government in the US Constitution. Yetm people still felt compelled to put limits on it. The real history of "eminent domain" goes back to the late neolithic. Locke blinds Americans to this.

Date: June 10th, 2025 1:51 PM Author: Heady avocado background story The reasons for this seem pretty functional, partly because the way the king keeps his job is my making powerful people happy and partly simply not killing the golden goose. The drive to provide for your children is so strong that parents will resent a regime that prevents them from doing it, and do everything possible to circumvent it (transfer late in life, have children on the title of their properties, etc.). The wealthy are by definition powerful, so this is a great way to anger people who can start the revolution. BUT, even if you succeed, you've destroyed the incentive for your most productive citizens to produce. Once they have enough money for themselves, they'll just soft quit. It's better to have them toil to make the kingdom wealthier even if you only get some of it, rather than to try to take it all and get nothing. If I wasn't building wealth for my children to have some day, I already would have clocked out of the faggot rat race.

Date: June 10th, 2025 1:53 PM Author: out-of-control crackhouse yarmulke Locke thought it was a common practice that predated the earliest governments, and was already so taken for granted that no ruler would even think to question its legitimacy. He didn't think people sat around and parsed it out, or else we'd have records of the debate. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5735676&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310486#49002548) |

Date: June 10th, 2025 1:59 PM Author: Heady avocado background story I don't understand the objection, then. Most people naturally want to leave things to their children, so absent a coercive/powerful state, then that's what happens. When we eventually did get stationary bandits, even they didn't want to fuck with this deep instinct. Almost all animal species instinctively provide for their children, not understanding that humans do the same obtuse.

Date: June 10th, 2025 2:56 PM Author: Insecure beady-eyed principal's office therapy i think many would want to, it's just extraordinarily difficult to create a system that operates fairly in perletuity.
the temptation for the people administering the system to enrich their own people (see your human nature point) is hard to create checks and balances against. our own system was built explictly to prevent an aristocracy by leaving the people power and its still rife with grift and patronage. |

"After 1923, inheritance of property apparently became firmly entrenched, and the restrictions on its scope have been progressively reduced with each amendment. Thus protection by law of "the right; of inheritance in personal ownership" was incorporated in the U.S.S.R. 1936 Constitution now in force."

1. Should we keep letting rich people donate their money to their kids after they die, or;
2. Should the government confiscate rich people's wealth after they die, and write annual checks to every American for an equal portion of whatever the IRS confiscated from dead rich people that year? |

Date: June 11th, 2025 11:41 AM Author: Deranged yapping mad cow disease hall It’s perspective bias on Locke’s part. It has been “voted” on by people and governments often throughout history via personal or social choice. It fails to persist because the strategy loses against people and/or societies that engage in it.
Societies that don’t allow inter generational resource transfers were outcompeted by those that do. Within societies that allow transfers, family units that don’t engage in inter generational wealth transfers were placed at a competitive disadvantage vs those that do and were outcompeted.
People and families are more than free to not engage in inheritance, and the experiment has been run innumerable times throughout history; it’s just a losing strategy. |
