    Shady shit was done for the money still, sure, but not by the person with the money.

    Laundering blood money through a generation will make it clean again. No guilt if you can inherit the sins of your fathers. No complicity if you simply stand on a mountain of corpses that just happened to die for your benefit.

      It isn’t their fault they won the lottery of life. You can still judge them for their own actions, what they do with all the money.

        We all have a duty in this life to do better than our predecessors, not merely to wallow in their misdeeds and plead innocence.

        Inheriting blood money simply means you’ve inherited the obligation to right the wrongs that produced it.
