I'm sorry, I genuinly don't understand your point. Could you expand a bit?

> Hypothetical scenario: we have 100 houses, and 200 young families looking for one. Your solution in effect is: let's give 100 houses to the 100 young people with an inheritance

This assumes that each family only gets a single house. With enough wealth you can buy out all the houses (not considering other factors)

Of course? I think we are debating the same side of this point though: "Inheritance is a horrible way to divide prosperity within society, as it doesn't take into account the wants or needs of the people still alive."

If that is not the case, I unfortunately still didn't get your point.
