The consolidation of inequality via property wealth inter-generational transfers (via inheritance) will continue (or may even intensify) in the next twenty years... no wonder so much effort is made by the rich to convince the less well off that inheritance tax is an unjust imposition on the moderately well-off.

Until we start to deal with iniquities of the housing market & its mechanism of inequality solidification, we'll never tackle inequality!
