Whether deserving or not, children often inherit the fruits of their parent's labors. Do you consider this a problem the government should correct?

"those from a privledged background need much less skill and luck to do so"

So what? What is your point? Who should correct this "problem"? I wouldn't even say that your statement is true in the sense that you can't cruise through life with no skill just because you have a succesful parent. Sounds like you have contempt for people who are born to more succesful parents. The main reason their kids do better is that they have an example of success and know it is possible. Your view is sour grapes imo, and it is a view that holds the view holder down.
